Millions of customers may have had credit card information compromised

BOSTON - Notices are going out to millions of customers who may have had credit card information compromised in a data breach at stores such as T.J. Maxx and Marshalls.

The notices contain information about eligibility for compensation such as vouchers and credit monitoring to be provided under a proposed settlement with TJX Cos., the operator of more than 2,500 discount stores.

Mailings and newspaper and magazine notices began Friday in the United States, Canada and Puerto Rico under an order by the federal court in Boston handling a consumer lawsuit against TJX.
