Hacker Group Says It Stole Data From 560M Ticketmaster Accounts & Is Offering It for Sale
In a Ticketmaster hack, a group says it stole data from 560M customers and is offering to sell the information for $500,000 via an illegal forum.
“The data breach, if confirmed, could have severe implications for the affected users, leading to potential identity theft, financial fraud, and further cyber attacks,” the Hackread site explains. Most breaches are carried out using sophisticated phishing pages that mimic their target’s login portals, tricking employees into entering account credentials and other sensitive data. “From June 2023 until May 2024, BreachForums was operating as a clearnet marketplace for cybercriminals to buy, sell, and trade contraband, including stolen access devices, means of identification, hacking tools, breached databases, and other illegal services,” FBI official said in a statement at the time.
