Who is affected

  2. First disclosure

Response

  • Revoked credentials
  • Access review
  • Patched

Revoked the credentials, removed related permissions and fixed the root cause

What you should do

  1. Don't open links in emails from this company. The apology email itself may be fake
  2. Treat refund or apology calls and texts as scams. Call back only on the number from the official site
  3. Watch for unexpected mail or invoices; your address is hard to change
  4. Check the company's notice to see if you're affected

Lessons for companies

  1. Passkeys or MFA for every account; monitor leaked credentials and rotate API keys
  2. Report to the PPC: preliminary in 3–5 days, final in 30 (60 if malicious)
  3. Run red teaming and AI-assisted hardening, and publish how much you invest
