"The extort-and-leak crew says the stolen haul includes user data tied to Hinge, Match.com, and OkCupid, as well as hundreds of internal documents. A listing on ShinyHunters' dark web leak site, seen by The Register, claims "over 10 million lines" of data, and points to AppsFlyer, a marketing analytics provider, as the apparent source of the exposure. Match Group confirmed to The Register that it is investigating what it described as a 'recently identified security incident,' and that some user data has likely been accessed."
"'Match Group takes the safety and security of our users seriously and acted quickly to terminate the unauthorized access,' a spokesperson said. 'We continue to investigate with the assistance of external cybersecurity experts. There is no indication that user login credentials, financial information, or private communications were accessed. We believe the incident affects a limited amount of user data, and we are already in the process of notifying individuals, as appropriate.'"
