"Within the last 36 hours, we learned that unauthorized third parties obtained the e-mail addresses of some of you."
CurrentC, the mobile payment format retailers like Rite Aid, CVS, and Walmart are contractually obligated to use in lieu of Apple Pay, hit another stumble today. MacRumorsreports that the consortium of businesses behind the payment platform, the Merchant Customer Exchange (MCX), experienced an email breach at some point in the last 36 hours, per a notice sent out to people who have signed up for the pilot program. (CurrentC isn't set to hit stores until 2015.)
