@JarradLawrence Did the data breach effect only current customers or anyone that’s been a @Optus customer over the years?

After telling the optus chat line that my house had burned down and that I had tried repeatedly to get the nbn cancelled (which I am still paying for), she asked me, and I kid you not, if I had tried turning it off and turning it back on again. I…I don’t know how to answer.

@TGUZ72 @Optus Well I have evidence as per screenshot and chat history that there is an issue which @Optus know about and they will compensate for number of days we are without service.

Hi @Optus just got this message about ‘not returning my fetch box’. I have told you repeatedly over the last 12 months that my house burnt down and there is no fetch box. I have begged to speak with a real person with no luck. I’ll need confirmation by the end of the

The Optus fellow told me to DM me the problem and give him ‘as much info as possible’. Hoo boy, he’s asking for it.

hey @newscomauHQ saw your article on @Optus about their incompetency and the hecking! They told me I wasn’t hacked and then a month later told me I was! Being trying to find a resolution and they are useless. Reach out if you want the story!

@Yeahbutnaahh @Optus Optus informed me last week that my Australian passport number has been compromised. Narrator: James didn't have an Australian passport when he was an Optus customer. He is confused.

@Optus @glendat45 My house burnt down 14 months ago and they charged me for not returning the fetch box. That burnt along with it. Impossible to get any service from them. Hope it gets sorted out soon for you.

@EVillainess @markrayfield2 @Jeremy_Kirk Better check the ACMA carrier legislation and then the audit requirements. 👍 Optus have failed to maintain customer privacy. Failed to secure the private data AND have failed to protect data IMO this was a deliberate act from cabal to force a cyber security event in the future.

tbh private health insurance shouldn't even exist (neither should private telecommunications - looking at you optus) and should be shut down immediately as they've proven they can't be trusted with our data, but that's another story /rant over

@haruki_zaemon @Optus I’ll try again when I upgrade my phone (which arrives in a couple of weeks). That will include shifting to a new 5G plan, which will hopefully fix the weirdness.

Hello again @Optus . I have been on the chat service 1 hr and 45 minutes and this is the most recent message ‘As per checked, there was a usage on it. May I know if this happened to one place? Or to other places?’ Do you deliberately make it difficult to solve problems?

@TGUZ72 @Optus That’s one thing about hiring people to provide front line support when they are not adequately equipped to work through issues. Sometimes that will result in someone letting out more information than they should.

So what happened? "[It's] still under investigation. However, this breach, like most, appears to come down to human error," an Optus insider told the ABC. They apparently opened up their customer identity database to other systems via API, then failed to secure it.

@Optus @rico_wallaby Revived an email saying my details had been impacted. However the email gave ZERO indication of how Optus will help. It’s all on me to try and catch any issues. Probably a bit later by then though to be honest #OptusHack #optusfail

@chipswoon @arielbogle Optus had to collect that data because the government forces them to. Should be like the UK where you can buy a functional SIM from a supermarket and not need 100 points of ID to have a phone service

@trevorlong Commiserations. As a former Optus customer myself I ask - why do companies retain PI info on *former* customers? There should be laws about that sort of stuff.

@byronkaye If he/she/it is successful this time who is to say what he will demand from his victim. While he may have been trying to hamper Optus, what he actually did was make the average Australian have to face more problems, time and money. No sympathie he is nit Robin Hood

Hey @Optus... After 16 yrs with you, you're fncking dead to me. The harm you've done is to create monumental anxiety around the lack of power us victims have over our IDENTITY (data) being stolen. All because we entrusted you with this sensitive info in order to get a service. 🖕

@AustinDocherty @MoarToast @Optus Yep, I had a 4G broadband account for a bit before we got the NBN about 3 years ago, and that's the only Optus service I've ever had - not a current customer 🤬

@TheMaskedUnit @MoarToast @Optus Even worse, no longer a customer and they still have your name, address d.o.b. and driving license / passport numbers on file. Heads must roll.
