It's pretty widespread across the US- and it's not limited to VISA.
Something major was compromised. (My MC is being reissued because of
the exact same issue). There's a lot of traffic on some of bike
related forums about the issue too. I made a call to to my cc company
and they said that they had received word from a vendor/processor
about a security breach. They wouldn't elaborate beyond that.
While I'm not one to conjecture- it may be a processor that was
compromised.
