Leeds United kick card swipers into Row Z after 5-day cyberattack

Leeds United's online retail store was compromised for five days in February, during which cybercriminals captured payment card details from customers; the club conducted a third-party forensic investigation, notified affected customers and is liaising with the UK Information Commissioner's Office. The report frames the incident as a likely skimming-style theft of transaction data and places it in context with other recent cyber incidents targeting sports clubs.
