Vodafone UK fights-off breach attempts, blocks 1,800 accounts in aftermath

Vodafone UK says attackers used information obtained from an external source to target customer accounts late last week. The attack was stopped, but not before 1,827 accounts were accessed. The data that was obtained included their name, mobile phone number, banking short code, and the last four digits of their bank account. The source of the data used by the attackers isn’t clear. An arrest has been made in relation to the TalkTalk data breach, the third in the case so far.”]
