The personal information of Canadian Ticketmaster customers appears to have been stolen by hackers, according to a sample of the data shared with Global News.
Twelve files containing spreadsheets of data allegedly represent a small fraction of the Ticketmaster data stolen by infamous hacking group ShinyHunters. The group claimed early last week that it stole 1.3 terabytes of data, containing the personal information of 560 million customers.
The data — shared with Global News by an expert who has been granted anonymity for fear of legal action — amounts to just 37.5 megabytes, and appears to include the personal information of tens of thousands of people, including full names, phone numbers, email addresses, home addresses, partial credit card details and transaction details.
Mike Drolet reports.
