CNN Money reports:

NEW YORK (CNN) - Discover Financial Services and American Express Tuesday joined the list of credit-card companies saying a hacker breached a security system of a company that processes transactions on behalf of merchants.

Discover and American Express would not disclose how many accounts were involved. In a statement, MasterCard put the overall security breach at about eight million accounts, including 2.2 million of its own cards. Visa said 3.4 million of its cards were affected.


The companies say they believe there has been no fraud.
