The leak of personal data from more than 533 million Facebook users was scraped from their profiles by malicious actors, Facebook says. The social media giant says the leak was due to a security flaw in its contact importer prior to September 2019. Ireland’s Data Protection Commission is the first watchdog group to say it s looking into the incident. The data includes Facebook user mobile phone numbers, their Facebook ID, name and gender information. About 32 million were tied to user accounts based in the United States.
