NEW YORK (AP) — Upscale hotel chain Mandarin Oriental says it is investigating a potential credit card breach at its hotels.
"Unfortunately incidents of this nature are increasingly becoming an industrywide concern," the company said in an emailed statement. Mandarin Oriental said it is coordinating with credit card agencies and forensic specialists. The company didn't disclose how many hotels were affected nor how many customers reported fraudulent charges on their credit cards.
Mandarin Oriental operates hotels across the world including Paris, Shanghai, Hong Kong, London, New York, Miami, San Francisco, Prague, Boston, Las Vegas, Macau and Barcelona.
The breach was first reported by cybersecurity news website KrebsOnSecurity.
