New Jersey is co-leading the lawsuit filed after hackers were able to collect credit card numbers used in Wawa stores.
The breach impacted transactions that took place between April 18 and Dec. 12 in 2019 and affected customers in New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Florida, Delaware, Maryland, Virginia and Washington, D.C.
