    @helphelpandhelp It's the fact that Optus KEPT all the personal info, even of ex-customers. WTF were they doing with licence and passport numbers well after the 100 point check had been done. WHY?

    @GrassCouch @samishah @Optus From what I’ve gleaned from reporting, they exposed an API with access to personal customer data to the internet via a test environment. Not deliberately I don’t think, sounds like the test environment was hacked. The API doesn’t appear to have had access controls….

    Sorry for being Cynical The Government publicly attacked Optus Did Optus really get Hacked? Is this part of the plan? A Telephone & Internet outage across Australia. = No ATMs No Bank withdrawals No EFTPOS No communications Have enough food available for 2 weeks.

    @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.

    @abc730 @ClareONeilMP Finally hearing some numbers. Optus has been very slow to provide proper details to customers. And very slow to offer financial support. The Parliament should fast track changes to require transparency and accountability.

    @benzocco @SlaterGordon Optus having a test api server endpoint exposed to the worldwide web. Basically its 100% on optus to be liable for their lack of testing and poor software data management.

    @JustJul77588855 Where in the alphabet is your surname? My friend's is J and I'm M and he got his email before me (even though hasn't had an Optus service for 10 years!)..

  • smyth_rosa Allambie_Girl (@smyth_rosa) reported

    @UrbanWronski @Biggy1883 Gladys is with Optus. They have serious recruitment issues.

  • David_Paul_B David P (@David_Paul_B) reported

    @abc730 @ClareONeilMP Yep.. For example, I would like to know whether the information exposed was only of direct Optus customers, or whether it also included customers of MVNO’s (eg Dodo, Amaysim, Coles, iPrimus, iiNet etc) who run on the Optus network.

    three weeks ago I was thinking of changing to Optus for a cheaper service, looked up plans online and everything. Glad my procrastination mood kicked in.

    @abc730 OPTUS should be force to pay any customer (or past customer) monies lost in any fraud. In excusable
