 Mass. Bankers: Another data breach hits major retailer

 The Massachusetts Bankers Association said Monday that another
 major retailer has been hit by a data breach and is warning Bay
 State consumers to monitor credit and debit accounts.

 MBA officials said in a statement that Visa and MasterCard have
 contacted 60 to 70 banks in Massachusetts about a large data
 breach occurring at what the card companies characterized as
 "a major retailer."

It's Hannaford Supermarkets.  My guess is that in a few hours (if not
sooner) this will be on all the regular news sites, maybe with more details.
