Data breach — High

In September 2017, TGBUS suffered a data breach. 10 million accounts were affected. The exposed data includes email addresses, passwords and account identifiers. Have I Been Pwned flags this breach as unverified: its origin could not be confirmed.

| Fact | Value |

| Disclosed on | April 28, 2018 |
| Incident dated | September 1, 2017 |
| Accounts affected | 10M |

| Severity | High |
| Status | Reported |

## Exposed data

- Email address
- Password (hashed)
- Customer ID

## What you can do

- Change that password — and everywhere you reused it. That is how a leak spreads to your other accounts.
- Turn on two-factor authentication on the affected accounts: a stolen password is then no longer enough.
- Expect phishing attempts quoting your name and this company. A message that knows your details is not legitimate for that reason.
- You can ask the organisation exactly what was exposed about you (right of access), and complain to the DPA if no answer comes within a month.
