Ruh oh. Tracy Kitten reports:

Restaurant chain Penn Station Inc. has upped the number of franchise locations affected by a payments breach to 80, almost double what it originally reported.

The breach, which Penn Station says it’s still investigating, is connected to a point-of-sale processing hack that may have exposed credit and debit details, but not PINs, at restaurants in Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, West Virginia, Michigan, Missouri, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Virginia, North Carolina and Tennessee.
