These reports suggest the threat actor ShinyHunters may be involved. The specific details of what happened and who disclosed it are unclear, beyond the mention of emerging reports.
The investigation aims to determine if a class action lawsuit can be filed. At this time, the specific types of data compromised and the number of affected individuals are not publicly confirmed.
