Veeam drops the ball, exposes 440M Customer E-mails
-
Oh wonderful.
-
What's that rule about making databases available publicly...…
Oops.
-
I can now take over the world with publicly available email address, names, and company names.

If you think about it, really no has a private email address. . .
[email protected] eventually will hit a live mailbox. . .
-
I've noticed an uptick in spam calls to my google voice number, lol.

Eventually you'd think that the people who are buying my email address would get the hint. I don't buy anything.

NOO, not my email address!

They always say it was something unimportant and then two years later we will find out that there were a couple of million credit card numbers too in the database.

Credit card numbers, heck we'd be lucky if it also doesn't contain personal details like your residence address, DoB etc.

I would assume that veaam licensing is generally too expensive for a credit card purchase. PO purchasing is much more likely. I guess for some small customers, credit cards payments are possible

Unlikely doesn't mean impossible. . .
Experian anyone. . .

For example, it will hit John Smith's email at domain.com!
I bet that's real.
