A customer database containing the private information of 1.1 million RedMart user accounts was breached, and this information was then sold on an internet forum.
The data leak was confirmed by a representative for e-commerce behemoth Lazada, which also owns e-grocer Redmart.
It was discovered that the stolen personal data included names, phone numbers, e-mail addresses, mailing addresses, passwords that were encrypted, and a portion of credit card numbers.
Customers were also cautioned by Lazada to watch out for phishing emails, in which con artists pose as Lazada representatives and request critical information.
