If you use your Visa credit card to pay at the pump for your gas, you might want to take a closer look at your next card statement just in case something appears off.

That’s because Visa has issued a security alert saying that groups of hackers have been able to exploit weaknesses in the gas pump point-of-sale systems that millions of consumers use every day. Visa said that the hackers have used spam-like emails and other methods to get into gas station payment systems where they have installed so-called “scraping” software that can take a person’s data off of their credit cards.
