Woolworths shuts down system after Everyday Rewards members are hit by hackers

EXCLUSIVE Woolworths supermarket has confirmed that it’s been forced to shut down a major payment system after Everyday Rewards members were targeted by scammers. The retail giant has removed the Everyday Pay option from its Everyday Rewards app due to a “sophisticated external phishing scam” affecting selected customers.

“Out of caution we proactively turned off the Everyday Pay QR payment option in-store while we investigated. “We want to reassure our members that our Everyday Pay systems and data remain secure and have not been compromised. “While it was temporarily unavailable last week, the Everyday Pay wallet continues to be available for gift cards - which can be purchased, stored and used for in-store and online purchases.
