Dunkin’ Donuts is warning customers in its DD Perks program of a hack after the company learned that an outside source gained access to some account holders usernames and passwords. Dunkin’ Donuts said it was made aware of the incident on Oct. 31 by one of their security vendors. The restaurant chain issued a statement saying that the hackers may have been able to access private information such as customers’ first and last names, email addresses, their DD Perks account number and DD Perks QR codes.
In an investigation, Dunkin’ Donuts said their internal systems did not experience a security breach, but the hackers were able to access information through security breaches of other organizations.
