Personal data and credit card info on the loose.
Same thing happened at Air Canada a week ago, luckily no credit card information was breached!
YIKES! Booked a flight on BA two weeks ago. Received an email today that my information was stolen! (cc number ,cvv number, expiration,etc.) British Air says they will reimburse if there is fraudulent activity. Anyone else receive this email? Thoughts? Concerns?
