A hacker leaks information from Amazon and several other companies and says the data was compromised via last year’s vulnerability in the MOVEIt file transfer platform.
Employee data stolen from last year’s MOVEIt breach has been posted on a well-known hacking forum, including details on up to 2.8 million Amazon workers.
Over the weekend, a user called “Nam3L3ss” began sharing the data on the forum, saying the stolen information comes from numerous companies, including Amazon, HP, Lenovo, Fidelity, HSBC, and Delta Air Lines.
On Monday, Amazon confirmed it had lost company employee information through a hack at a third-party provider. “We were notified about a security event at one of our property management vendors that impacted several of its customers, including Amazon,” the company said in a statement. “The only Amazon information involved was employee work contact information, for example, work email addresses, desk phone numbers, and building locations.”
The e-commerce giant didn’t offer any more details, but Nam3L3ss is sharing a database allegedly consisting of 2,861,111 lines full of individual Amazon employee contact information, including their full names.
