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

  • 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.

  • renee_glitch Renรฉe (@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 ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘ I'm not even a customer anymore. Why did they keep my data? @Optus

  • lyng62 Lyn (aka The Tractor ๐Ÿšœ) (@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

  • 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

  • wheelyweb Joe Ortenzi ๐Ÿ‡จ๐Ÿ‡ฆ ๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡น ๐Ÿ‡ฆ๐Ÿ‡บ (@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 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.

  • 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. Itโ€™s an Optus issue about a breach in Optus customer data. Let Optus sort things out and investigate first. #auspol

  • lyng62 Lyn (aka The Tractor ๐Ÿšœ) (@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 Iโ€™m at the point of thinking they can get ******

    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. ๐Ÿ˜ณ wow, no firewalls or any contingencies? Shutting down all my Aus Bank accounts ๐Ÿ˜‘

  • wheelyweb Joe Ortenzi ๐Ÿ‡จ๐Ÿ‡ฆ ๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡น ๐Ÿ‡ฆ๐Ÿ‡บ (@wheelyweb) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

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

  • 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

  • 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.

  • GT_AUS Graeme T (he/him)๐Ÿ’‰x 4๐Ÿ˜ท - ๐ŸŒณ๐ŸŒฒ๐ŸŒด๐ŸŒต (@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. ๐Ÿค” Real = should NOT have happened as a result of poor system/s.

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

  • 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

  • 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.

  • GT_AUS Graeme T (he/him)๐Ÿ’‰x 4๐Ÿ˜ท - ๐ŸŒณ๐ŸŒฒ๐ŸŒด๐ŸŒต (@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.๐Ÿค”๐Ÿค”

  • 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>

  • 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. โ€œDonโ€™t worry the network is fineโ€ฆbut your drivers licence, date of birth, name, email, and phone number have all been compromisedโ€. I canโ€™t think of a *worse* possible breach.

  • Liamdoyle19901 Liam Doyle (@Liamdoyle19901) reported

  • 4N1m4l_l0v3R Mike (@4N1m4l_l0v3R) reported

    @Optus What exactly does "unplanned maintenance" mean? I've been trying to access my account since 5pm today! Is there an estimated time when these issues will be fixed... or you going to let us guess?! ๐Ÿ˜ค๐Ÿ˜ค๐Ÿ˜ค๐Ÿ˜ค

    @Optus you guys are a bunch of crooks!! I was told you wonโ€™t be charging me for the modem due to multiple issues I was having with your NBN service. Then you guys just debit $732.66 from my account. WTF!
