DoorDash, the popular delivery service, has disclosed a data breach that compromised the personal details of its users. The breach, affecting an undisclosed number of individuals, resulted in the exposure of names, email addresses, phone numbers, and physical addresses.
While phone numbers and physical addresses were accessed by hackers, DoorDash emphasized that no sensitive information, such as Social Security numbers, government-issued IDs, driver’s license details, or financial data, was compromised. The company assured that there is currently no evidence of the data being misused for fraudulent activities or identity theft.
The breach was attributed to an employee falling victim to a social engineering attack. Upon discovering the incident, DoorDash promptly cut off the hackers’ access, initiated an investigation, and informed law enforcement.
DoorDash has taken steps to notify all affected users, including customers, delivery workers, and merchants, about the data breach.
