The Target: U.S. money transfer giant MoneyGram.
The Take: The stolen customer data includes names, phone numbers, postal and email addresses, dates of birth, and national identification numbers. The data also includes a “limited number” of Social Security numbers and government identification documents, such as driver’s licenses and other documents that contain personal information, like utility bills and bank account numbers.
The Vector: BleepingComputer first reported that MoneyGram was breached through a social engineering attack on its IT help desk where threat actors impersonated an employee. Once they gained access to the network, the threat actors initially targeted the Windows active directory services to steal employee information.
