Convenience store giant Wawa Inc. said Tuesday it is responding to reports that hacked information from its customers' credit cards may be being sold on the dark web.
The company said in a news release that customers who may be affected can obtain free credit monitoring and identity theft protection.
Malware discovered last month affected payment card information and was contained within three days, Wawa said.
Cybersecurity firm Gemini Advisory said information from the Wawa theft began to show up for sale on the dark web this week.
The breach affected all of Pennsylvania-based Wawa's stores, which stretch along the East Coast.
