M & S customers targets of latest hack attack

Marks and Spencers customers are the latest victims to have had their details stolen.
M & S customers have been warned to expect an increase of spam emails as part of a wider attack on marketing firm Epsilon.
As reported yesterday, the latest mass hack attack compromised many companies in the US, including the hotel chains Marriott and Hilton and several banks.
M & S stated;
"We have been informed by Epsilon, a company we use to send e-mails to our customers, that some M&S customer e-mail addresses have been accessed without authorisation," the retailer said in an e-mail sent on Tuesday evening.
"We wanted to bring this to your attention as it is possible that you may receive spam e-mail messages as a result.
"No other personal information, such as your account details, has been accessed or is at risk."
