Bodybuilding.com experiences data security incident

BOISE, Idaho (CBS2) — Bodybuilding.com announced Friday that some of their employment-related information may have been accessed in a data security incident.

The possible information accessed could have been group health plan subscriber information, such as protected health information of certain employees and former employees.

"While the Company has no evidence that personal information was accessed or misused, Bodybuilding.com is notifying current and former employees who are group health plan enrollees and relevant dependents and beneficiaries, out of an abundance of caution," Bodybuilding.com stated in a press release.

Law enforcement and security experts are working with the company to address any vulnerabilities. Bodybuilding.com says it is monitoring its systems and adding additional security.

An investigation on the incident in April could not rule out that personal information may have been accessed. Information investigated could include human resources data and health insurance information, such as names, contact data, Social Security numbers, government identification information, dates of birth, group health plan subscriber numbers, health claims payment information and procedure codes.

Bodybuilding.com created a dedicated call center for employees to answer questions about the incident: (866) 873-7534.
