Vacationland Vendors Inc. has reported that an attack by hackers has compromised a large number of debit and credit cards used at gaming arcades. Those affected have been notified.
Transactions associated with payment of room fees, restaurants and entertainment centers do not appear to be affected by this incident.
Vacationland discovered the breach on April 1, 2011, at which time the company shut down its card payment systems until late May 2011, when it removed malware from its computers. An investigation is ongoing.
Anyone that used a debit or credit card during the time frame described should close accounts affected to further protect themselves.
If you feel you are a victim of identity theft as a result of this breach, contact the Office of Privacy Protection at (800)422-7128 or email us at wisconsinprivacy@wisconsin.gov
