Kmart Breach on my CC

I was a victim in the recent Kmart credit card breach. My creditor informed me of the issue when I went to take care of something else. My new card is in the mail and thankfully I am not liable for any potential charges. But last year around this time my card was breached and it was reported as lost/stolen and my credit score dropped 25 points. I am wondering if the same thing will happen again this time and/or if this happened to anyone else?

Note to self: just pretend everywhere you used your credit card had its data breached that way you wouldn't even be surprised.

I'm truly getting sick and tired hearing about all these US data breaches!....I wonder how frequent this problem is in other parts of the world?

The business I work for has a lot of customers in UK and I constantly get calls from them to update their card details as their card was comprimised/breached. And they have chip and pin over there...
