Incident: Aussie fashion e-tailer Princess Polly suffers data breach | iTnews

Australian Information Security Incident Reported: June 1 2019

Australian online fashion e-tailer Princess Polly suffered a data breach which may have exposed customers’ personal and payment information to an “unidentified third party”.

The company warned customers in an advisory note to watch their credit or debit card statements closely and to report unusual activity to their bank.

Princess Polly said that the data breach had been uncovered “recently” and that it impacted customers that shopped on its A/NZ site between 1 November 2018 and 29 April 2019. The attackers may have been able to capture payment details as they were typed into the site
