Newegg

Newegg

Newegg is one of the largest retailers in the US, making $2.65 billion in revenue in 2016.

Newegg is clearing up its website after a month-long data breach.

Hackers injected 15 lines of card skimming code on the online retailer’s payments page which remained for more than a month.

The code siphoned off credit card data from unsuspecting customers to a server controlled by the hackers with a similar domain name likely to avoid detection.

The server even used an HTTPS certificate to blend in.

The code also worked for both desktop and mobile customers though it’s unclear if mobile customers are affected.

The company has not yet determined which customer accounts may have been affected.

Anyone who entered their credit card data during the period should immediately contact their banks.
