Angry TJ Max, Mashalls, ect Credit Card Number fraud

I am not sure if this is limit to my area (western PA Greensburg stores specifically), so I figured I'd give a heads up.

Somehow card numbers (Mastercard in particular) have been hijacked. They linked it back to TJ Max, Marshall's, and I think one other store affiliated with them.

I found out about this because I went to the ATM only for it to eat my card and tell me I was an unauthorized user. I had a credit/debit card with a mastercard logo. I received a letter from my bank the following day informing me that they are terminating current ATM cards and reissuing new ones. They said it was because Mastercard found that many cards were being used fraudulently and that all Mastercard owners should check the bank/credit statements to be sure that there isn't any transactions that weren't their own.

Thankfully mine wasn't used, but I do know some who's was. I hope no one else has had a problem like this, but I figured I'd give everyone the heads up so they can be on the look out especially if you do shop in that area or at those stores.
