Company Data Breach History
This is not the first time that Multiple Combolist has suffered a data breach. In 2021, websites suffered a similar breach in which their customers’ personal information was compromised. At that time, the companies promised to strengthen its security measures to prevent such incidents from happening again. Unfortunately, it seems that these measures were not enough to prevent another breach.
