RADISSON GUESTS ARE LATEST TO WIN FREE CREDIT MONITORING FOR ONE YEAR!
The Radisson Hotel chain is the latest American retail company to
announce it has suffered a significant breach of its computer systems
resulting in the compromise of credit and debit card data. This couldn't have been Gonzalez the "soup nazi" because he was already in custody at the time of this breach. Here's the "Open Letter" informing Guests that their credit and debit card numbers were breached 9 months ago...
