An American Express employee is being investigated for accessing card holder information and potentially using it to open accounts at other financial institutions.
Starting on September 30th, 2019, American Express began sending out data breach notifications to cardholder members whose information was fraudulently accessed by an employee.

The information that was accessed for affected members includes the full name, physical and/or billing address, Social Security numbers, birth dates, and the credit card number.

"We are aware of this issue. Ensuring the security of our customers’ information is our top priority, and we are investigating this matter in close partnership with law enforcement," American Express told BleepingComptuer via email. "We can tell you the person in question is no longer an employee of American Express. Given this is an active criminal investigation, we can’t provide any further comment."
