A prolific ransomware group has claimed to have exposed the data of over 600,000 customers of luxury French skincare company, the Clarins Group. According to Cybernews, whose research team examined the dark web post by the hacking group, the sample data contains customer details including names, birth dates, addresses, phone numbers and email addresses from the company’s customers across the U.S., France and Canada.
Though the hackers from the notorious Everest group claim to have “a variety of personal documents and information," so far the data only shows info that would likely be accessed from online stores across multiple regions. The data is the kind of information that customers often provide when signing up to purchase products online, or when signing up for loyalty programs. The hacking group did share more information from two additional databases but those details have information that would appear to come from online shops such as purchase histories of skincare and makeup products.
