ZAGG’s E-Commerce Snafu: Credit Card Chaos Strikes After FreshClick Hack!
ZAGG Inc. announced a credit card data exposure due to hackers compromising BigCommerce’s third-party app, FreshClicks. The malicious code, active between October 26 and November 7, 2024, scraped card details during checkout. ZAGG is offering affected customers 12 months of free credit monitoring to mitigate potential fallout.
Hot Take:
Looks like the only thing ZAGG couldn’t shield with its fancy screen protectors was its customers’ credit card data! In a plot twist worthy of a cyber-thriller, the villain here is a sneaky app called FreshClick that managed to inject chaos right into the checkout process. Guess you could say the hackers were “charged” with a shopping spree of their own!
