Forever 21 Suffers Payment Card Breach
Return To ArticleAmerican clothes retailer Forever 21 announced on Tuesday that the company had suffered a security breach that allowed unknown hackers to gain unauthorized access to data from payment cards used at a number of its retail locations.
The Los Angeles based company, which operates over 815 stores in 57 countries, didn’t say which of its stores were affected, but it did note that customers who shopped between March and October this year may be affected.
Forever 21 learned of the breach after the retailer received a report from a third-party monitoring service, suggesting there may have been “unauthorized access to data from payment cards that were used at certain FOREVER 21 stores.”
