40,000 warned over online short break data breach
Around 38,000 people who booked short breaks promoted by SuperValu supermarkets, a further 4,000 who availed of similar offers through Axa Insurance, plus 50 Stena Line customers may have had their card numbers and personal details accessed in a hacking attack.
Loyaltybuild, the Co Clare-based company that operates the schemes, said it held credit card details in encrypted form as a security measure and so far there were no signs of any information being extracted or misused, but it added the investigation would take several more days.
