BRIEF: Trump hotels warn of data breach in Chicago, other cities

Oct. 02--Hackers may have accessed payment card information at Trump hotels across the country, including Trump International Chicago at 401 N. Wabash Ave., according to the hotel chain.

Unauthorized software may have been used to access to credit card information as it was put into the hotels' payment system, according to a statement on the Trump Hotel website.

The data breach may affect people who used credit or debit cards at certain Trump hotels between May 19, 2014 and June 2, 2015.

"Although an independent forensic investigation has not conclusively determined that any particular customer's payment card information was taken from the properties' payment card system or misused, we are providing this notice out of an abundance of caution," the website states.

The hotel chain is offering a year of identity protection services to anyone who used a payment card during the affected dates.

The hotels affected by the possible data breach are:

--Trump SoHo New York

--Trump National Doral in Miami

--Trump International New York

--Trump International Chicago

--Trump International Waikiki in Honolulu

--Trump International Hotel Tower Las Vegas

--Trump International Toronto
