The personal data of up to 2 million Australians may have been exposed in a cyberattack on Ticketmaster, affecting 560 million people globally.
The personal information of 560 global customers of Ticketmaster have allegedly been exposed, potentially affecting 2 million Australian customers. A post on the dark web dated 28 May purported to be from a hacking group known as ShinyHunters is offering to sell the 1.3 terabytes of personal information for $750,000 . The company has yet to release a statement confirming whether its databases have been hacked.
A spokesperson for the Department of Home Affairs said they are working with Ticketmaster to "understand the incident". The ShinyHunters hacking group has been implicated in a series of cyberattacks since 2020, including targeting Pizza Hut Australia in September. Nearly 200,000 customers were impacted by the hack. Last week, electronic prescriptions provider MediSecure pulled down its website, saying it is working to understand the impact of a hack of Australian patient data.
