Flink Customers Personally Extorted: Hackers Demand 10 to 15 Euros Ransom
Hackers have stolen customer data from delivery service Flink and are demanding individual ransoms of 10 to 15 euros for data deletion. Unlike typical corporate extortion, this attack targets customers directly using names, addresses, phone numbers, and order instructions. Flink advises against payments and has filed a police report. Cybersecurity experts describe this as a concerning new trend in hacking, noting that while the amounts are small, it bypasses traditional moral constraints by targeting individuals rather than just the company.
