Cyberattack on Worten is a 'complicated issue' and a 'clear warning' should have been issued: 'Check if any direct debit has been created'
Following a cyberattack on Worten that compromised customer NIFs, contact details, and order history, a cybersecurity expert advises customers to monitor their bank accounts for unauthorized direct debits. While Worten states that no financial or credit data was accessed, customers are urged to be wary of potential social engineering attacks, such as fraudulent emails or SMS messages that use personal information to appear legitimate.
Why it matters
If you are a Worten customer, monitor your bank account for any unrecognized direct debits and be highly skeptical of any communication claiming to be from the company, as your personal data may be used to make phishing attempts appear more credible.CNN PortugalRead original ↗
