    @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?

    @3AWNeilMitchell Why? This is an Optus problem. Why are we covering for a company owned by Singapore?

  • sbmcd Stephen McDonald (@sbmcd) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    @Optus #OptusDataBreach so my partner who was a customer with you in 2016 has been notified about the data breach, but I was a customer up to a year ago and still can’t find out if my data has been compromised.

    Of course, it'll be up to the privacy commissioner to work out whether the ambiguity is wide enough to fit in Optus' practices. But either way, cyber experts have warned that creating a "honey pot" of valuable customer data is very risky.

    When Optus started in business in Australia, I and others thought "Optus? WTF is an Optus? What a stupid name!" It's still a stupid name.

    @VictorDominello I’m overseas how do I go about changing my documents that have been hacked (I,m an Optus customer)

  • SassFred Freddie (@SassFred) reported

    @GourmetMale I think with the Optus issue it’s just so much identifying data all together. That’s what’s concerning me right now. But we have too many places requiring personal info. That is very true

  • KatieGrace2022 Katie🌸 (@KatieGrace2022) reported

    @ronInBendigo @techverbatim Could have been deliberate - corruption is everywhere - but more likely it’s storage as I’m an ex Optus customer and they got my name, address, email, fob and partial credit card (both address and xx now changed)..

  • doritoeubanks alliages de tuyaux (@doritoeubanks) reported

    @oneplanetmikey @JanB_QLD @joshgnosis No - not true. Third-party companies do the KYC, they keep this data encrypted securely. Optus only have this data because they offered a service to store this for customers with promises of security. I don’t know why anybody would take this offer, but it seems many did.

  • BradDutchy Brad Holland (@BradDutchy) reported

    @Rita_Saffioti That’s 💩 & doesn’t help people who were victims of breaches prior to Optus. Tad rich @MarkMcGowanMP to say that you weren’t aware of it until now. 4 yrs p eople have been unable to get the DL #s changed and have had to suffer in silence. Make it available to everyone 4 a fee.

  • spaghezzy spaghezzy (@spaghezzy) reported

    My third day in a row of trying to close my #optus account. Just spent an hour waiting for an @optus help chat reply only to see the "agent is typing" notification for about 2sec and then I was force logged out.
