S&P 500 slips, but losses kept in check as Nvidia climbs ahead of results
Investing.com -- Louis Vuitton UK said on Friday that hackers stole customer data in a cyberattack.
The unauthorized access occurred on July 2, when a third party breached the systems of the British unit of LVMH (EPA:LVMH) Moet Hennessy Louis Vuitton SE (OTC:LVMUY)’s flagship brand.
The hackers obtained information including customer names, contact details, and purchase history, according to an email sent to customers on Friday.
Louis Vuitton UK assured customers that no financial data such as bank details were compromised in the attack.
However, the company warned that "phishing attempts, fraud attempts, or unauthorized use of your information may occur," even though there is currently no evidence of data misuse.
The luxury retailer has notified relevant authorities about the breach, including the Information Commissioner’s Office, as part of its response to the incident.
