Data breach — Moderate

Swiss precious metals dealer Gold Service announced a security incident affecting customer data linked to online transactions. The exposed data includes full names, email addresses, postal addresses and phone numbers, and for some customers the amount of their transactions. The company states that banking data is not affected and that some customers have already been contacted by a third party holding information about them. The number of people affected, the period and the origin of the intrusion have not been disclosed.

The combination of identity, contact details and, for some customers, transaction amounts allows a third party to make fraudulent calls, SMS or emails impersonating Gold Service more convincing.

## Exposed data

- Full name
- Email address
- Postal address
- Phone number
- Order history

## What you can do

- 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.
