Five local Michaels stores - four in Charlotte and one in Matthews - have been added to a list of the retailer's locations found to have tampered PIN pads. The tampering could have led customers' payment cards to be compromised.
The arts and crafts retailer first found the tampering last week, and thought that the problem was limited to the Chicago region. Now, it's found 90 pin pads in multiple states that have been tampered with, affecting nearly 10 percent of its stores.
Affected customers have already reported money stolen from their bank accounts, often at California ATMs, and often in the amount of $503, the Chicago Tribune reports
