Capital One says data breach affected 100 million credit card applicants. A Seattle-area woman was arrested in connection with the breach.
Capital One announced Monday that a hacker breached data of nearly 100 million credit card applicants, and that thousands of bank account and Social Security numbers had been taken in the process.Washington PostCapital One chairman and chief executive Richard D. Fairbank said he was sorry for the breach, and that he was committed to making things right.
The Capital One breach is one of the bigger hacks ever on a financial services firm. Capital One said the data breach could cost the company well more than $100 million, maybe upwards of $150 million. Equifax, one of the three major credit-reporting agencies, reported in 2017 that personal information was stolen from 147 million people, and just last week U.S. regulators reached a $700 million settlement in that case.In a criminal complaint filed in federal court, authorities say Thompson, during online conversations, often used the term"erratic" as a name while posting.
