QANTAS Cyber Incident

[justinbrett]

None here

 

[MonteCristo]

Got the "I'm writing to inform you that we believe your personal information was accessed during the cyber incident we recently experienced." email.

I assume that's the second one kindly informing me that I'm forked.

 

[sydks]

Nothing received here yet either

If you want to lock your credit report then you can do so Experian Credit Report Request This form can also pass the ban information onto other credit reporting agencies.

I generally keep mine at lock status.

My concern with these data breeches is that it just adds more and more information to the dark web's knowledges of me eventually completing a good enough picture that they can carry out identity fraud, whereas I don't see it being used to access any qantas system on my behalf. The biggest risk we have in our household is Westpac where we have paid down loans allowing surplus funds there for easy redraw. The best we can get from Westpac is a 'kill switch' in that if we get any of our security questions wrong on the first attempt then all our account are locked and we have to attend a branch to re-identify. Interesting we cannot opt-out of having these loan accounts available in Internet banking they have to be available online and rely on other measures to secure them.

How feasible would it be for them to simply roll everyone over to 6 million new numbers? Had to get a new licence after the optus fiasco but that was reimbursed.

 

[OATEK]

Got the email saying my data was accessed. Had already assumed it was as had a couple of unavoidable interactions with Manilla.

"I'm writing to inform you that we believe your personal information was accessed during the cyber incident we recently experienced."

I just got that too

I’ve emailed and called in the last few years about missing partner airline SC/points claims.

Generic / open notice received at 6:05PM AEST. Might be some time yet before the impacted customer messaging goes out

Received the personally impacted message at 10:38PM AEST. Not surprising, given I’ve had multiple interactions with Manila over the last couple of years. Oh well - Another day; another breach. I’ve got a device / app Authenticator running for any transactions on QFF, so not really concerned.

 

[JohnM]

Nothing for me so far.

 

[RSD]

Well thankfully at least a few members seem to have escaped this!

We both got the "to everyone" email at 12.31 Wednesday, and only the wife got the "specific" follow-up email this evening, so far. and we've both got the follow-up this evening.

EDIT: to add timing.

 

[SuePa]

We both got the "to everyone" email, and only the wife got the "specific" follow-up email, so far.

I haven't even received the general one yet.

Edit: I received both emails, into my Junk folder, overnight. Strangely, the personal one was sent before the general one.

I haven't even received the general one yet.

Might be in your Junk Mail. Not joking!

2 out of 5. Myself P1, Child Gold have received an extra email. 3 haven’t - 2 kids plus wife. Did one request for the Child and myself with P1.

Likewise.

 

[drron]

Just the general we are very sorry email.

 

[SuePa]

Might be in your Junk Mail. Not joking!

Nope, nothing there either.

 

[PineappleSkip]

That could be nice too, but not sure it would mean anything to other OWA carriers?

It would mean more to our perceived self importance

Same here - although I've probably just jinxed myself...

Received the accessed data email. Unfortunately I have been playing mind games with Manilla in the last few months.
Of interest SWTSIO* also got the accessed email, although she has never used any QF call centre, (doesn' have the patience). Possibly her QFF# is associated with mine as we are often on the same PNR.
