    @Optus @RunnerSA18 I haven’t been with Optus for almost 3 years now, and received an email yesterday afternoon that my personal data was hacked, WHY DID YOU KEEP MY DATA IN YOUR SYSTEM? Who will be paying for the damage that this will cause should@someone use my data to hire a car or take a loan?

  • corruptagenda David, ICAC Now ✳️✳️✳️✳️ (@corruptagenda) reported

    So @Optus you sent an email to apologise, where is the email informing us what to do next? Do we close email accounts, change phone numbers and apply for new drivers license or passports? Twiddling thumbs is not an option #Help is needed #auspol

  • pillingm Michael Pilling 🇺🇦 (@pillingm) reported

    @bencmorrison Just sent this email too @amaysimAU who resell @Optus network via their website.

  • phil0stine Phil Inn (@phil0stine) reported

    @ktdenise Haven’t been an Optus customer for about 3 years but got an email yesterday telling me to watch my back.

  • GosoraProject Gosora Project (@GosoraProject) reported

    My goodness, Optus had poor security.

  • MillerDannielle Dannielle Miller, OAM (@MillerDannielle) reported

    @BigunitGrant @Optus Almost 30 years of being an @Optus customer. I estimate they’ve made at least $100k from me to date. An email sent to me 3 days after the public announcement isn’t going to cut it. I’m now going to close my account and my daughter’s on principle.#OptusHack

  • Narkov Nick Adams (@Narkov) reported

    @BLShiv @Smushster @Jeremy_Kirk Rubbish. This is in no way deliberate. It's clearly a bug. Optus would not have wanted this and this is evidenced by the API being taken down.

  • LeeRyman Lee Ryman (@LeeRyman) reported

    @Jeremy_Kirk So a test server had no auth, unobfuscated real customer data, and was accessible from the Net? Multiple failings here. A transparent report by Optus would provide an opportunity to learn from this. We have ATSB reports for major incidents, perhaps CERT should do the same.

  • RebelInventor Rebel Inventor (@RebelInventor) reported

    @vshek @Jeremy_Kirk @VicRoads Wow that’s bad for those that are in Vic and have had their details compromised with Optus, they can’t do anything until someones allegedly already stolen their identity and committing fraud .

    Optus says about its hacked customers “No worries, just change your Birthday, move house and cancel every account you have” And your good to go👍
