Hilton Hotels investigating card fraud claims
The Hilton Hotel chain is investigating claims that customers’ credit and debit card details were compromised as a result of point-of-sale malware implanted on its cash till.
The compromise occurred between 21 April and 27 July, according to reports, with sources at five different banks telling high-profile security researcher Brian Krebs that the breaches could date back to as long ago as November 2014. It is believed – at the moment – only to have affected Hilton-owned and franchised hotels in the US.
