Cartier data hack

[Moxisox]

I got it too( but I found it weird that it said Miss in the email)

I also found mine strange that it said Mr. when my husband doesn’t have an account. Only I do (and I’m a woman).

Mine did the same, my DH has an account as well. Must've been a technologically challenged person writing up the auto draft lol

Got 3 of them. One with Ms., one titled "client" and one without anything at all

Could this be a phishing thing?

Makes sense. I’d expect phishing after ‚data breach’.

I did not receive one. But I did receive a normal marketing email from them today.

I got it as well and I live in France. They got the title wrong as well, which I found weird... Well, they are not the first ones to be targeted by such hackers.

I’m increasingly concerned about how much of my data might be exposed on the dark web after all these recent breaches. During our workplace data protection training, the key takeaway was to use a dedicated email address for banking and investments. Since online retailers are frequent targets, I now use separate email accounts for shopping. The rule is simple: never use the same email for both banking and shopping.

I’m also skeptical of Cartier’s claim that only names and email addresses were leaked. With the right cross-referencing, attackers can easily guess simple passwords and potentially gain access to user accounts.

Hope everyone’s info is safe!

Glad I'm not the only one where the greeting was incorrect. I got 2 "Mr." emails, when I expected Ms. or Mrs. The mister caught me by surprise. 😂

Good advice. I would also suggest to shop indirectly with your card, ie pay with PayPal or Apple Pay or whatever other secure ‚middle man’… this way your card details are not directly linked to an online retailer. Hope it makes sense
