WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Home Depot has been in contact with the U.S. Secret service about an alleged major breach of customer and credit card data that came to light this week, a law enforcement source told Reuters.
Any investigation by the Secret Service appears to be at a very early stage, the source said.
The Secret Service usually is the lead agency in federal criminal investigations into complex breaches of credit card and other consumer data.
