380,000 Payment Cards Hacked from British Airways

British Airways, who describes itself as “The World’s Favorite Airline,” has confirmed a data breach that exposed personal details and credit-card numbers of up to 380,000 customers and lasted for more than two weeks.

In a statement released by British Airways on Thursday, customers booking flights on its website (ba.com) and British Airways mobile app between late 21 August and 5 September were compromised.
