  • just_brash Justin Brash 🏳️‍🌈🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🇦🇺🍸📷🐱 (@just_brash) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    Optus has put out a statement addressing the government criticism of the company. As a customer I’m still waiting for any communication from the company at all. Hello @optus, when do you intend to contact customers? #optushack

  • lyng62 Lyn (aka The Tractor 🚜) (@lyng62) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @wallyscr Thanks Aaron. I had been considering getting a dongle or a SIM card or something with Optus just to keep the account (been with them nearly 30 years) but recent events have given me bad juju

  • IaenCordell Iaen Cordell (@IaenCordell) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    At last I got an answer for my 3G issues, they have switched off 3G 2100MHZ 3G in Artarmon! Now if they just informed the clowns in customer circus, then again Optus have a more current example of not advising customers! <grin>

  • jazza1983 Jarrod McCloughan (@jazza1983) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    Hi @Optus I am a former customer of yours. You may have an old email on file for me so you may have not reached me by email if one was sent. Will I be notified by mail if the email bounced back? Thanks

  • bcurrall80 Blake Currall (@bcurrall80) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @gomikestevens @Optus As a current Optus customer, I am still yet to receive any correspondence from them about this colossal **** up

  • GT_AUS Graeme T (he/him)💉x 4😷 - 🌳🌲🌴🌵 (@GT_AUS) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @aparachick @anna_prole @JustJul77588855 Can't speak for Aussie but TPG own network. Anybody know, do the piggyback players simply use Optus infrastructure but maintain client data on their own system/s.🤔🤔

  • emzsuri 𝑬𝒎𝒎𝒂 𝑴𝒊𝒏𝒊𝒎𝒃𝒊 (@emzsuri) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    Arrived in BNE and switched my sim to Optus and was welcomed with a message regarding cyberattack on Optus resulting in customer information being stolen. 😳 wow, no firewalls or any contingencies? Shutting down all my Aus Bank accounts 😑

  • renee_glitch Renée (@renee_glitch) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    Unusual spam WhatsApp message and unsolicited phone calls since #optusdatabreach count now at 2. Awesome 👍👍 I'm not even a customer anymore. Why did they keep my data? @Optus

  • 50to39 Donna Longhurst (@50to39) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @SEggminder @Optus Hackers can duplicate any business header, info, even "security" so closely that it fools a lot of people. They set up their own sites complete with phone numbers. I got hacked that way. I avoid links completely these days. I never call the number sent in these txts or emails.

  • GT_AUS Graeme T (he/him)💉x 4😷 - 🌳🌲🌴🌵 (@GT_AUS) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @RichardKGrump Couple of IT peeps on RN just a moment ago. Of opinion real internal system problems given what Optus has said. 🤔 Real = should NOT have happened as a result of poor system/s.

  • DraganLazik D R A G A N (@DraganLazik) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @MadsMelbourne @Optus **** yeah you're right when you activate the sim, so stupid they don't need it either

  • fictillius Sagittarius (Sgr) A* (@fictillius) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @InsideRetailau @Optus Nothing was broken into, it was left out in the open.

  • wheelyweb Joe Ortenzi 🇨🇦 🇮🇹 🇦🇺 (@wheelyweb) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @craigthomler @stilgherrian If I understand it right it’s an Optus CUSTOMER human error or an Optus EMPLOYEE human error. Either way, it’s an Optus company problem and responsibility.

  • 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.

  • JPMasters JPMasters (He/Him/They/Them) (@JPMasters) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @Jeremy_Kirk I think @Optus is in some deep trouble.

  • chrisjackis Chris Jack (@chrisjackis) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    If laughable that @PeterDutton_MP suggests the #OptusDataBreach is a problem for the government. It’s an Optus issue about a breach in Optus customer data. Let Optus sort things out and investigate first. #auspol

  • wheelyweb Joe Ortenzi 🇨🇦 🇮🇹 🇦🇺 (@wheelyweb) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    Hey @guardian : has anyone asked @optus if previous customer data has been deleted? I was once a customer maybe 8 years ago so no idea if they had my data.

  • 50to39 Donna Longhurst (@50to39) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @SEggminder @Optus Probably the small cogs in the chain on the phone not getting all the info from the bosses. Doesn't help situation.

  • pat_norman Pat Norman (@pat_norman) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    My partner got the email from Optus and my jaw hit the floor reading it. “Don’t worry the network is fine…but your drivers licence, date of birth, name, email, and phone number have all been compromised”. I can’t think of a *worse* possible breach.

  • lyng62 Lyn (aka The Tractor 🚜) (@lyng62) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @HullKiwi I had considered doing something like that. But Optus have let us all down this week so I’m at the point of thinking they can get ******

  • noreasonspec The Guybrush Chocobo (@noreasonspec) reported

    Extremely pleased every state is making optus pay for replacement docs. **** the taxpayer paying for that. Good job team. Eat **** optus

  • dawnstarau Dawnstar Australis (@dawnstarau) reported

    Not really paying too much attention to the Optus thing, not because its not important but: * There's already 17 jillion other people looking at it * I trust the people that look at it on my behalf to do their work * There's still a metric **** ton of other badness happening

  • Glennkay16 Glenn kay (@Glennkay16) reported

    @9NewsAUS @cokeefe9 All because Optus had not respect for their customers personal info. Sue the crap out of them.

  • MarkinInOz Mark (@MarkinInOz) reported

    @jasonjordan The word hack minimises the perception that Optus were blatantly negligent in securing this data.. It gives the impression that some evil hacker infiltrated their network when in fact they left production data available on the internet with no security..

  • MaccaPolitical John McDonald (@MaccaPolitical) reported

    @Psy_Fer_ @jodieingles27 Mmm that is a bugger. Hope you can sort out your affairs. I see Vic is paying for new licenses. Maybe Optus will have to lend a hand or some dollars if they want to retain a customer base.

  • JExodus21 Jexodus21 (@JExodus21) reported

    @VictorDominello Poor effort on your part. Why make the public pay before reimbursing when. You know this is Optus responsibility? Weak

  • alblen CovidCowgirl🦠 (@alblen) reported

    @Optus just confirmed my name, date of birth, email, phone number, address and drivers licence have all been leaked and I’m like yeah ok I get it but also who ******** would wanna steal this identity ???? Good luck to them

  • JasmineQuilter 💉💉💉💉Jasmine MacDonald💧💧 (@JasmineQuilter) reported

    @peter_donnelly @Anthony_Klan Person interviewed by ABC journo Nicole Chvastek this afternoon said she hadn’t been Optus customer for over 2 years but her data was hacked. Ping @nicolechvastek

  • boards_john John Boards 🏌️ 😷 💉x4 (@boards_john) reported

    The Optus security fail has only just begun. There's no way all 10 million files have been deleted. 🙄 If Optus hasn't paid the ransom it's because the hackers have found another buyer. IT'S TIME that corporations are RESTRICTED from the amount of personal info they can ask for!

  • fragga81 franco (@fragga81) reported

    @SharnelleVella We need to replace the card if we an Optus customer??
