Co-op experiencing empty shelves, shipment delays from ongoing cyberattack

Customers at the Moose Jaw Co-op — and several other Co-op locations across the province — have been experiencing a shortage of goods ranging from produce to fuel this week as the Federated Co-operatives Limited continues to grapple with an ongoing cybersecurity attack.

Details on the attack remain sparse, although it has been confirmed that the incident involves Federated Co-op locations across Saskatchewan.

In response to numerous inquiries about the status of confidential personal information, the Federated Co-operatives Limited has issued the following statement:

“We have no evidence at this time that consumer data was compromised. If the investigation determines that consumer data was compromised, we will take appropriate action.”

Customers can now purchase a limited quantity of fuel at the Co-op cardlock on the North Service Road in Moose Jaw, however many Co-op cardlocks across the province remain out of service until further notice.

The Moose Jaw Express will continue to investigate the incident and more information will be provided as it becomes available.
