Dear Customer
We value the relationship with you and we look forward to serving your future needs. Regrettably, we must inform you that between May 6th and May 10th, 2012, unauthorized access by an unknown third party concerning customers' personal information associated with pending and recently shipped orders occurred. Accessed personal information includes your name, address, email address, phone number, ECS customer account password, debit or credit card number, credit or debit card expiration date, and debit or credit card security code or access code. We have taken prompt action to secure the system to prevent any further compromises.
Please be assured that ECS Tuning Incorporated is taking this matter very seriously. We have worked diligently to investigate the unauthorized activity and have identified and secured the method of unauthorized access. We have notified the credit card companies and have provided them with information they have requested so they can notify the banks that issued the affected credit cards. We have also filed a case with the local Wadsworth, Ohio Police Department (Case# 21205162) and are cooperating with their investigation.
As a result of this incident, ECS Tuning, Inc. has implemented additional security measures, eliminated the storage of all credit and debit card information and follows industry best practices to prevent this type of occurrence from happening again in the future.
Although ECS Tuning, Inc. has secured the system and taken preventative measures for the future, we want to warn you that you face a risk of unauthorized use of your information. Although we have not been notified of any instances at this point, unauthorized access to sensitive information always poses a risk of identity theft. We therefore want to describe certain steps that you can take to protect yourself against identity theft. We suggest that you carefully review all bills and account statements you may receive over the next several months, and report any suspicious activity to the financial institution of the account at issue. If you think that your personal information is being improperly used in any manner, you can also contact local law enforcement to file a police report. The Office of the Privacy Commissioner provides guidelines on protecting yourself from identify theft. To access them, visit: http://www.priv.gc.ca/resource/ii_4_01e.cfm.
