A South Jersey-based chain of sandwich shops is warning customers of a months-long data breach.

PrimoHoagies Franchising, Inc. said the breach allowed unauthorized parties to access payment card information for customers' online purchases between July 15, 2019, and Feb. 18, 2020.

"The affected payment card information may have included names, addresses, payment card numbers, expiration dates, and security codes," it said.
The security breach, which has been resolved, did not affect payment cards used for in-store purchases, it added.

In a statement Friday, PrimoHoagies also said it will cooperate with law enforcement "to hold the malicious actors accountable."

A Philadelphia chain of sandwich shops is facing a class-action lawsuit over a data breach that went undetected for 7 months.
PrimoHoagies said it only discovered the breach "after receiving notice of unusual payment card activity from a few customers who ordered online."
According to a statement issued by PrimoHoagies Franchising, Inc. on April 17, "the affected payment card information may have included names, addresses, payment card numbers, expiration dates, and security codes."

On April 23, Edward D. Hozza III brought a suit against the sandwich shop chain, which he accuses of failing to take adequate steps to protect customers against the theft of "highly sensitive and personal payment card information."
In the filing, Hozza, of Lehigh County, Pennsylvania, states that his credit card company had to issue him with a new card after his account was used for fraudulent purchases in September 2019.

According to the Cherry Hill Courier-Post, Hozza contends that the breach will cause victims "to undertake expensive and time-consuming efforts, including placing 'freezes' and 'alerts' with credit reporting agencies." He predicts that the number of PrimoHoagies customers affected by the cybersecurity breach is "likely in the millions."
The plaintiff is further seeking for PrimoHoagies to offer at least three years of identity theft– and credit card–monitoring services to all online customers affected by the breach.
