Big data breach! boAt’s 7.5 million customer records exposed in dark web

Hi All

 

Another case of phishing and scams coming forth:

 

Indian electronics manufacturer boAt has experienced a major data breach, compromising the personal information of an estimated 7.5 million customers. 

The breach was first reported by Forbes India and reportedly includes sensitive Personally Identifiable Information (PII) of users such as names, addresses, phone numbers, email addresses, customer IDs, and more.

The breach is said to have occurred on April 5, 2024. A hacker operating under the name “ShopifyGUY” has claimed responsibility, dumping roughly 2GB of stolen customer data onto a dark web forum.
