    @Optus hey Optus I want more details on this breach, where has it originated from and what assurances can you give that they have not had access to my financial details. Think you may need to look at compensation like cancel all this months bills. You need to do better.

  • marlinman76 Ian No Jab For Me #Bitcoin (@marlinman76) reported

    Class action required for @Optus losing current and former customers personal data. Poor @Optus has been a victim of a cyberattack they tell us. The real victims are the @Optus customers who provided personal details to a terrible 💩company with crap💩service and No security.

  • MelanieKaraB Melanie Booker (@MelanieKaraB) reported

    @masericha @Optus When I messaged they wanted my details to confirm my account! I'm a previous customer and I got the email to say my info was taken - like I'll hand over any other info to them to confirm it. @Optus tell us what you're doing to fix your own mess.

  • raptisj68 John Raptis (@raptisj68) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @trevorlong You're lucky Trevor, I've been a customer since the analogue days and still haven't received an email from @Optus notifying me of the breach.

  • tempe_tweeter Tempe Tweeter (@tempe_tweeter) reported

    @Optus I am one of your many customers but as of this morning I have yet to be advised via a simple email as to what’s happening with my personal data etc and to be assured that everything is under control. Your public relations basically sucks. @kbrspace

  • TheMaskedUnit The Masked Unit (@TheMaskedUnit) reported

    FFS. I had an @Optus 4G modem for a bit before we got the NBN about 3 years ago. The only account I've ever had with them. Just got the email about the hack. Why ******** did they still have my info?

  • AshrafIshak11 Ashraf Ishak (@AshrafIshak11) reported

    @clarkes @emmaandollie @Optus Compensation for accountability, irresponsible conduct and poor security on a global scale that will have our personal ID details sold world wide on the dark web & there has to be immediate changes for how much ID these companies can legally require

  • trevorlong Trevor Long (@trevorlong) reported

    For those wondering IF they were an Optus Customer in the timeframe of this hack - Optus CEO says it dates back to 2017, I can reveal that the data dates back to Thursday, May 25, 2017 - when I believe the customer data was migrated from one server to another.

  • prawnheavennow Prawnheavennow (@prawnheavennow) reported

    @Optus I haven't been an optus customer for well over 2 years. Why did you keep (and leave unguarded) any of my information when it was not necessary for any business or contractual purpose? You should be sued into oblivion.

  • the_segamaster Tim (@the_segamaster) reported

    @segamaster_nick @Optus @AlexTurnerCohen - official statement from Optus customer service claiming that this was a Chinese attack!
