TL;DR Summary

Giant Eagle has discovered credit card skimmers at five of their Ohio store locations, prompting a warning to customers to monitor their account statements. The skimmers, which can steal account information from swiped cards, were found between November 3 and 9. The affected stores are in Powell, Columbus, Brooklyn, Parma, and South Euclid. Giant Eagle has retrained employees, inspected all PIN pads chainwide, and is conducting a forensic analysis of the devices. Customers who used chip insertion or tap payment methods are reportedly not at risk. Shoppers are advised to watch for fraudulent activity on their accounts and report any suspicious transactions.
