On friday, the release information that their system was compromised and that information and personal affirmation of customers have been compromised. And she stated this is the second largest retailer in just the last couple weeks. Target was huge, 70 million customers who were affected.

Target released information that they will go over and above to help customers and no word yet from the miss marcus on what they plan to do.

Since the consumer could themalware on their computer and not even know what you can also be giving away your debit card information online.
