Led by hacktivists Noam Rotem and Ran Locar, vpnMentor’s researchers discovered a breach which exposes up to 1.5 million active Freedom Mobile users’ personal data. Freedom Mobile (formerly Wind Mobile) is Canada’s fourth-largest wireless communications provider.

The database was totally unprotected and unencrypted. The data includes credit card and CVV numbers.

We could also access account numbers, subscription dates, billing cycle dates, and customer service records including locations.
Some entries also included data from an Equifax database. This included information on credit scores, credit class, and credit card accounts.

Ironically, Freedom Mobile prides itself on offering high levels of privacy. It’s even in their Twitter bio
However, they clearly shared – and overshared – their customers’ data.
