An unauthorized individual gained access to the email account of a Michigan-based non-profit organization Oakland Family Services via a phishing scam.
The unauthorized access leaked the data including the addresses, telephone numbers, dates of birth, internal client ID numbers, health plan ID numbers, insurance numbers, dates of services, and programs of approximately 16,000 clients.
The NGO immediately took action and informed the affected persons and trained its employees to avoid any such phishing scams in the future.
