RBS WorldPay Breach Exposes 1.5 Million Credit Cards

In November, RBS WorldPay, a payment processing center in Atlanta, Georgia, was recently victim to a security breach. It is known that their systems were accessed by an unknown third party, and over 1.5 million credit cards numbers are at risk. They handle gift card processing, ATM transactions, and other monetary services.

The information of their past customers and cardholders has been put at risk, and they are advising those who have used their services to watch their credit reports for fraudulent or suspicious activity.

It has already been reported that over 100 of the cardholder’s information was used fraudulently, so it is strongly advised to take the necessary precautions to protect their data and identity. Cardholders should strongly consider an identity theft protection service to protect themselves.

Investigators are looking into this situation to find the criminal, or criminals, responsible for this data breach.
