Customer data compromised

Customers of Sprouts Farmers Markets in Arizona and California are being urged to check their bank and credit card statements due to a data breach.

Illegal software was found to have targeted the point of sale system at 19 of 151 stores over a five-day period between January 25 and 29, 2013.

The incident involved certain credit card terminals at 13 of its Arizona stores and six of its
Southern California stores. As a result, certain credit card and debit card (but not PIN) numbers used at those locations only may have been acquired by unauthorized third parties.
