Some local gas stations may have had customer credit card information stolen. MAPCO Express last week announced that hackers used malicious software to gain access to the gas station chain’s payment card processing systems for a week in March and four days in April.
Customer information was reportedly stolen from stores across the southeast, including northern and central Alabama, although no specific locations were identified. A press release from MAPCO says that the convenience store chain has taken steps to strengthen their security by disabling the malware used by the hackers as well as working with the FBI and other federal law enforcement agencies.
According to the MAPCO website, there are 15 locations in Calhoun County. Customers who are concerned their personal information may have been compromised are being told to contact their banking institution.
