"on the unindexed internet."
"We'd like to stress that no passwords, credit card details, or similar confidential data were involved in this incident,"
The Canadian Toys R Us notified customers that attackers accessed a database, stole personal information, and posted the data online. The breach was discovered on July 30 after intruders claimed to have posted stolen customer data on the unindexed internet. An investigation confirmed theft of names, addresses, phone numbers, and emails. The company stated that no passwords, credit card details, or similar confidential data were involved. The notification did not specify when the compromise occurred, how long attackers had access, whether extortion was attempted, or how many customers were affected. Toys R Us engaged third-party cybersecurity experts and is reporting the intrusion to privacy regulators. The company has not offered identity or fraud monitoring services.
