In 2019, the customer suffered a data breach that exposed credit card information from millions of transactions.Wawa will pay New Jersey $2.5 million as part of a multistate settlement after a security breach exposed data about 34 million payment cards in 2019.
New Jersey had been among the states hardest hit by the breach, according to state officials. From April through December 2019, 27.2% of all of the company's payment card transactions were at New Jersey stores. Another 27% were in Pennsylvania. Customers in Florida, Virginia, Maryland, Delaware and Washington, D.C. were also affected. Collectively, they'll split an $8 million settlement.
He said the settlement "should serve as a message to the industry that we are serious about holding businesses accountable when they fail to protect consumers’ sensitive personal information.”
