57 Million Uber Accounts Hacked in 2016, not told until now.

This week, we found out that Uber was hacked in 2016, and lost driver’s license numbers, phone numbers, and emails. They did NOT lose social security numbers though or credit card information as we know now.

The worst part about this is Uber did exactly what they aren’t supposed to do, they didn’t tell anyone about the hack, and they paid two hackers $100,000 each as ransom.

Mundane information may not seem like a big deal, but it can help hackers steal identities, and cat-phish people into different situations.

If you think there is weird activity on your credit card, it is recommended to look into it and maybe even freeze your credit card. It’s worth looking into, as 57 million people got hacked, it could be you.
