CVS Photo Site Suffers Possible Credit Data Breach
The company is warning customers and the site is temporarily shut down, including at the Medfield location.
CVS is notifying customers of its online photo printing service that they’ve detected a possible data breach.
The photo service is temporarily shut down as they investigate, the company said, and credit card data and other personal information might have been stolen.
Customers visiting the CVSphoto.com site were greeted with a message Friday that said the credit card information was collected by an independent vendor who “manages and hosts CVSPhoto.com.”

The customer information on the site is “completely separate” from CVS.com and the pharmacies. Purchases on CVS.com and in the stores are not affected.
