  12. Last July, Qantas leaked private information of 4 million of its customers after a hack.

    The Office of the Australian Information Commissioner has just published its inquiry into that. Apparently it's all fine. Qantas holds your details for seven years, but that's fine. The data was "vished" (voice social engineering), and they really couldn't have done anything more. It's all just fine. Nothing to see here.

  13. Quick update for those wondering if #ScatteredLAPSUSHunters actually started leaking the Salesforce victims on the onion leak site:

    Yes. They started with 6 of the 39 companies: #Qantas, #Albertsons, #GAP, #VietnamAirlines, #Fujifilm, and #EngieResources.

    Clicking on the download link in the company's listing takes you to a Limewire link for downloading the data.

    When the onion was timing out, links were posted in the Telegram channel that would take users to the listings on Breachsta[.]rs forum. To download any of these leaks from their forum listings costs 4 credits.

    So the same Shiny who wrote a statement claiming forums are dead planned and implemented a plan to leak the data in a forum in the event there was interference with, or problems with, the onion leak site.

    And yes, I tested a download, and it worked.

    With that, I bid you all good night, and see you tomorrow.
