VirtualMacOSX

VirtualMacOSX has allegedly suffered a data breach in which the data of 10,000 customers was leaked on a clear web forum known for cybercrime and data breaches. The exposed dataset included customer’s full names, company names, email addresses, complete physical addresses, phone numbers, passwords, password reset keys, financial details such as bank name, bank type, bank code, and bank account numbers. User support tickets containing user IDs, IP addresses, full names, emails, and full messages from customer interactions were also part of the leak. This type of exposed data presents substantial risks including account takeovers, fraudulent transfers, and potential physical risks.
