Were credit card numbers published? The fraudulent charges from exposure of the numbers could easily exceed $5,000 from a single plaintiff.



I may be wrong, but I believe the first dump only contained a month or so worth of transactions and the numbers were obfuscated. So likely not enough for credit fraud.


Even in the second dump, which contained the entire backlog of transactions, the numbers were scrubbed. The information is only a name, address, account type, and amount of transaction. All the card information has been scrubbed.
