🚨 COINONE DATA BREACH: CUSTOMER SUPPORT RECORDS EXPOSED
South Korean crypto exchange Coinone has disclosed a cybersecurity incident involving its outsourced customer support provider, MetaM.
🔍 What Happened?
An attacker accessed MetaM's servers on November 12.
Customer information shared through phone and online support interactions may have been exposed.
The potentially affected data includes names, phone numbers, email addresses, bank details, identity information, wallet addresses and passwords shared during support conversations.
The total number of affected customers has not yet been disclosed.
🛡️ Were Crypto Wallets Hacked?
Coinone says it has found no evidence of direct intrusion into its account, trading or wallet infrastructure. Those systems are separate from MetaM's servers.
⚠️ The Biggest Risk: Phishing
Attackers could use details from previous support conversations to impersonate exchange representatives and target customers with convincing scams.
Key Takeaway: Crypto security is not just about protecting wallets. Third-party service providers can also become a major data-security risk.
