The company said the customer information that may have been exposed includes names, postal addresses, email addresses and payment card information. The UPS Store network is a franchise system of retail shipping, postal, print and business service centers in the United States. UPS Store has about 4,470 franchised center locations in the United States. UPS Store said the period of exposure to the malware began after March 26 at most of the locations.
