Hackers obtained the credit card details of some 380,000 British Airways travelers during a two-week data breach this summer that leaves the customers vulnerable to financial fraud, the airline says. BA's CEO, Alex Cruz, said Friday that enough data was stolen to allow criminals to use credit card information for illicit purposes, and that police are investigating. "We know that the information that has been stolen is name, address, email address, credit card information; that would be credit card number, expiration date and the three-letter code in the back of the credit card," he told the BBC. He added that no passport data had been obtained in what he called a "very sophisticated, malicious criminal attack," but that British Airways is "100 percent committed" to compensating customers. Dulles International Airport has implemented facial recognition software for international travelers; the system will be used to identify visa holders as they leave the country.

POLITICS 07/11/2018 09:05 pm ET The Supreme Court nominee is reportedly a big Washington Nationals fan. By Nick Visser Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh charged tens of thousands of dollars to personal credit cards over the past decade and was sometimes as much as $200,000 in debt, according to financial disclosure forms reported by The Washington Post. The reason, according to the White House: baseball. Kavanaugh incurred much of that debt buying Washington Nationals season tickets for himself and his friends, White House spokesman Raj Shah told the Post, noting that some of the expenses were also used for unspecified home improvements. The judge had between $60,000 and $200,000 stretched between three credit cards and a personal loan in 2016, but all were paid off in full or had balances below reporting requirements by the following year.

A pair of leading liberal Democrats proposed legislation on Thursday that would cap interest rates on credit cards and other consumer loans at 15 percent to help consumers grappling with growing credit card debt. The proposal by Senator Bernie Sanders and Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez also calls for the U.S. Postal Service to provide basic banking services as a way to provide new, affordable competition to traditional banks. “There is no reason a person should pay more than 15% interest in the United States,” Ocasio-Cortez tweeted. “It’s a debt trap for working people + it has to end.” Sanders is running for the Democratic Party's nomination for president, and Ocasio-Cortez has emerged as one of the most high-profile Democrats in Congress since winning her seat in 2018.
