TJX customer data used for fraudulent purchases
From the Associated Press
Customer data stolen by computer hackers from TJX Cos. has been used to make fraudulent debit card and credit card purchases in the U.S. and overseas, the Massachusetts Bankers Assn. said.
The fraudulent purchases have been made in Florida, Georgia and Louisiana, and overseas in Hong Kong and Sweden, the association said.
Last week, TJX said hackers had broken into a system that handles credit and debit card transactions as well as checks and merchandise returns.
