An unknown number of Target customers shopping over the busy Black Friday weekend had their credit card information stolen in an 'extensive' breach of the U.S. retailer's security, Dow Jones reported Wednesday, citing people familiar with the matter.
The theft may have occurred through software installed at machines customers use to swipe their cards when paying, Dow Jones cited one of the unidentified sources as saying.
The Black Friday weekend after Thanksgiving is among the busiest shopping periods of the year. Target did not immediately respond to requests for comment.
