A woman has been left 'terrified' after airline staff accessed customer data in order to find her phone number. Hannah, 23, had been travelling on an Etihad flight from Abu Dhabi to Manchester Airport when she received a WhatsApp number that she didn't recognise.
The newly qualified paramedic from Manchester messaged the number back asking where they had gotten her number from. Replying, the person apologised before admitting that he had accessed her phone number from the company's database after seeing her passport while boarding the plane.
Taking to Twitter Hannah detailed the terrifying moment, writing: "A guy who works for the Etihad airline used my personal data which he found via the airline database after seeing my passport to get my phone number and proceeded to text me.
