Ticketmaster UK Limited received a fine of GBP 1.25 million or EUR 1.405 million for using inadequate protection measures to secure the personal data of its customers. More than 9.5 million European customers may have been affected by a data breach between February 2018 and June 23, 2018, because of a faulty chat bot hosted on a third-party online payment site, which made it easy for a potential attacker to gain access to customer’s financial details. The ICO discovered that, among the affected personal details, there were names, expiration dates and CVVs, full payment card numbers, and Ticketmaster passwords and usernames. During the investigation, the ICO also found out that more than 60,000 payment cards belonging to the Barclays Bank customers were fraudulent. Other international banks reported fraudulent activities to Ticketmaster, as well.
