Oops! Cyber Snafu Exposes BVG Customer Data
Customer Data Breach Impacting Multiple BVG Users: Approximately 10,000 BVG customers' information reportedly compromised - Information leak: Over ten thousand BVG customers' data exposed
Hey there! Lookie here, a cyberambush on a service brawler for the Berlin Transport Authority (BVG) might've given snap-happy crooks the lowdown on a mountain of customer data. This jumble includes names, addresses, emails, and customer and contract numbers, y'all. BVG's spilled the beans in info letters to the affected customers, confessing they came across this mess. Initial sniffings suggest no financial data or passwords were compromised, but let's not get complacent now, pal.
The "Berlin Morning Post" had previously raised a ruckus about this, too. Around 180,000 customers could've been in this Pickle Jar, the company reported. They wasted no time in informing the data protection authority and the affected peeps about the situ. They've also set up a contact email for inquiries.
"Data privacy got me cyberspyin' anymore," BVG asserted. "This catastrophe's a top priority, mister, and an in-depth analysis is underway."
