About This Breach
The listed fields are dates of birth, email addresses, gender information, geographic location, income levels, names, phone numbers, and purchases; passwords are not listed.
Payment and profile data can personalize fake transaction, refund, promotion, or customer-service messages. A password leak should not be assumed because passwords are not listed, but financial-behavior and contact data still create privacy and fraud risks.
A match means that the queried email address, name, or phone number corresponds to a listed field; it does not prove that every field was exposed for the same person. Check transaction alerts in the official app, verify unexpected refund requests, and limit unnecessary profile information.
Verification and editorial method
LeakData compares the incident name, date, affected-record count, and exposed data types with accessible sources. Unverified fields are not presented as facts, and records are updated when new evidence becomes available.
