Coffee Meets Bagel users' personal information appeared for sale on the dark web.
ΤThe latest victim of a major personal data breach was the popular Coffee Meets Bagel online dating app with cybercriminals exposing the personal information of its 6 million members.
The personal information of its users Coffee Meets Bagel appeared in a huge database of stolen books sold on the dark web earlier this week.
The details of the attack and the information about the theft of users' data were revealed by the dating site itself, which sent an email to users on Valentine's Day, explaining that their names and e-mail addresses had been exposed.
"We recently discovered that certain information in your Coffee Meets Bagel account may have been obtained from unauthorized third parties," the email said.
"Once we have been informed, we have taken swift action to determine the extent of the problem. Ουμε We have contacted experts for a thorough inspection of our systems and our security infrastructure."
The dating application also reported that it is in the process of improving its security for better detection and prevention of cyber attacks in the future.
Despite the relatively limited information exposed by the attack - no bank account data has been compromised - security experts warn that such a breach could increase the victims of cyber attacks.
