   5 i    Earlier  today, British Airways said credit card information of
   6 i    at  least  380,000  customers have been "compromised" in a data
   7 i    breach  that  occurred  between  August 21 and September 5. The
   8 i    information  stolen  includes  customer names, email addresses,
   9 i    home  addresses  and payment card information -- but not travel
  10 i    or  passport details. Sky News reports: In an email to affected
  11 i    customers,  BA said: "We're deeply sorry, but you may have been
  12 i    affected.  We  recommend  that  you contact your bank or credit
  13 i    card  provider and follow their recommended advice. We take the
  14 i    protection  of your personal information very seriously. Please
  15 i    accept  our  deepest  apologies for the worry and inconvenience
  16 i    that  this  criminal  activity has caused." The breach has been
  17 i    "resolved"  and  the website is "working normally," it said. In
  18 i    a  statement,  the  airline added: "We have notified the police
  19 i    and  relevant  authorities...  [and]  will continue to keep our
  20 i    customers  updated with the very latest information. We will be
  21 i    contacting   customers   and  will  manage  any  claims  on  an
  22 i    individual basis."
