The report comes from Rajshekhar Rajaharia, the cybersecurity consultant, who noted that he found the data on the dark web while researching. What's more, the hacker is willing to sell back the hacked data for $300.

"The hacker has been privately selling the data for $300 but now he has made it public on the Dark Web," Rajaharia said, reports Economic Times. Furthermore, the hacker notes that the data breach took place back in July 2018.
Currently, Zoomcar hasn't responded to comment on the issue. Users are advised to change their username and password; and also keep different user ids and passwords for every platform.
