The source for Gawker's report is, of all things, a message board on the website Long Island Firearms. The message-board thread was started on the evening of Friday, December 2, with excerpts from a letter from the president of Restaurant Depot to consumers whose credit and debit cards had been compromised:
We recently determined that computer hackers stole credit and debit card information from the card processing system we use.The message-board post includes a PDF version of the letter that registered users of the website can access. The user who posted the letter includes the information that the warning applies to those used a credit or debit card at Restaurant Depot or another outlet, Jetro, from September 21 through November 18.
An employee at the St. Louis location, relaying information from her "admin," tells Gut Check that no customers information had been hacked.
