Coles said cardholders before 2018 could be impacted, adding the financial services firm had not provided further details.
Customers who have taken out a Coles credit card through Latitude Financial Services have had their private data exposed in the company’s recent breach – one of the largest in Australia’s history.
Coles historically has had about 350,00 to 400,000 credit card holders. “Latitude has not yet advised Coles of the number of impacted customers or specific details of the breach,” the supermarket chain said in a statement on Saturday. In March 2018, Coles Financial Services moved its credit cards to Citibank. In June, National Australia Bank bought Citi’s Australian consumer bank, including Coles Mastercard portfolio.
In late March, Latitude said its investigators had established that the driver’s licence details of 7.9 million Australian and New Zealand customers and applicants had been stolen in the data breach, which is believed to have originated from the network of the massive US-based outsourcer DXC Technology. An additional 6.1 million data records were stolen in the attack, most of which were more than a decade old.
