Data Breach Alert: Boston museum patron's credit card numbers exposed on public website

Posted by Joe on March 31st, 2008

The names, credit card numbers and other personal information of about 140 visitors to the Boston Museum of Science were inadvertently published on the museum's publicly available website earlier this month.

All of the impacted consumers had taken classes at the museum and their payment information was stored in a computer file. That file was accidently posted on the museum's website by a contract employee. An additional 183 consumers had just their names exposed on the site as well.
