In April 2012, the Wisconsin Office of Privacy Protection posted a notice on its web site that said the breach occurred between January 30, 2009 through November 3, 2011. Although the public was notified on July 2, 2010, Wisconsin residents were not notified until April 2012:
In July of 2010, it was discovered that the parent company of Camille’s Sidewalk Café, Beautiful Brands International, was hacked. The hackers infiltrated the credit card processing system. The breach affected about 20 stores, including the Camille’s in Wausau.
Beautiful Brands International worked with the Secret Service, Visa and MasterCard to stop the breach and prosecute the persons responsible. However, there was a delay in notifying Wisconsin residents because the owners of Camille’s Sidewalk Café in Wausau were in the process of changing credit card processors and leaving the Camille’s franchise.
Recently, fraudulent charges have appeared on compromised credit cards. Local authorities are investigating.
If you were a patron of Camille’s at any time, it is recommended you contact your bank or credit card company and request a new debit or credit card number be issued to you.
If you feel you are a victim of identity theft as a result of this breach, contact the Office of Privacy Protection at (800) 422-7128 or email us at DATCPWisconsinPrivacy@Wisconsin.gov.
