Sending an individual CC via email, exposes me and their history and precedence of being continuously hacked (personal info such as name, credit cards, passport info) is unnerving. They need to get their staff trained accordingly. That's all.
You're still missing the point. The property wasn't fined anything. The property is not Marriott. The data breach didn't happen there. They are (most likely) not Marriott employees. They work for a management company. Marriott does not write their paychecks.
I'm not disagreeing with the validity of your concern. I'm just pointing out you're misdirecting your criticism.
