Massive Chipotle Data Breach Greatly Impacts Hudson Valley Customers
Customer payment information was stolen from almost every Chipotle location nationwide, including here in the Hudson Valley.
Between March 24 and April 18, hackers used malware to access payment card data.
The malware searched for track data, which sometimes has cardholder name in addition to card number, expiration date, and internal verification code. The data is read from the magnetic stripe of a payment card, Chipotle said in a press release.
The company isn’t sure how many payment cards were hacked during the breach that hit most of Chipotle’s 2,250 restaurants during a three-week period.
The following Hudson Valley locations were impacted the by breach, according to the company.
- Central Valley
- Middletown
- Kingston
- Dobbs Ferry
- Yonkers
- White Plains
- West Nyack
- Rye Brook.
If you think your card may have been hacked, you can call 888-738-0534 Monday through Friday between the hours of 9:00 a.m. and 9:00 p.m.
