JM Bullion, which sells gold, silver, copper, platinum and palladium, became the victim of a cyberattack back in February that was not discovered until July.
It remains unclear why the hack is only just being disclosed publicly.
Potentially, this breach could have resulted in sensitive information, including customer names, addresses and even payment information, falling into the wrong hands.
The malicious code was only removed from JM Bullion website on July 17 – meaning that it was present for a staggering five months.
