Unauthorized access to school uniform maker may have leaked credit card information for approximately 3,800 people. The online shop of Sugako School Uniform, a major school uniform manufacturer headquartered in Okayama City, was accessed illegally.

The company is contacting customers whose information may have been leaked by email to alert them to any charges they do not recognize. The system had been tampered with due to unauthorized access, and some of the leaked information might have been used fraudulently, so the company suspended card payments.
