"Like virtually every other company these days, we have been
alerted to potential suspicious credit card activity and are in
the midst of a thorough investigation to determine whether it
involves any of our properties," Executive Vice President of
Development and Acquisitions Eric Trump said in an email to
Reuters.
"We are committed to safeguarding all guests’ personal
information and will continue to do so vigilantly," he added.
Donald Trump is seeking the Republican nomination for president.
Credit card data at various Trump properties in the United
States, including those in Chicago, Honolulu, Las Vegas, Los
Angeles, Miami and New York, could have been compromised,
according to the report.
The attack "appears to extend back to at least February," the
blog said.
Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Las Vegas said in May that a malware
attack may have allowed hackers to steal information of credit
cards used at its locations.
