Computerworld: Heartland Payment Systems Inc. is warning rivals of possible legal action if they don't stop trying to lure away its customers by hinting that continuing to do business with the breached payment processor could expose companies to fines by Visa Inc. for noncompliance with the PCI data security rules. In a message posted on Heartland's Web site, Heartland chief executive Robert Carr says the company plans to sue competitors that don't "immediately" stop making what he described as "baseless and unlawful" claims related to Visa's removal of Heartland from its list of service providers that comply with the PCI rules. Heartland, which processes more than 100 million transactions per month, has yet to say how many card numbers were compromised in the system intrusion. RBS WorldPay, an Atlanta-based division of The Royal Bank of Scotland Group PLC, disclosed in December that the personal data of about 1.5 million holders of prepaid payroll and gift cards had been compromised during an intrusion.
