Banks: Card Breach at Goodwill Industries
Summary: Financial institutions reported tracking what appeared to be a series of credit card breaches at Goodwill locations nationwide, with fraud traced to cards previously used at Goodwill stores in at least 21 states. Goodwill Industries International said it learned of a possible incident on Friday, July 18, was working with the U.S. Secret Service, and had not confirmed a breach, while financial industry sources said the activity could extend back to the middle of 2013.
Why it matters: The fraudulent charges surfaced at non-Goodwill retailers such as big box stores and supermarket chains, so the merchant where a card was compromised is not where the loss shows up - and the exposure window may run back to mid-2013.
