Responding to reports of an alleged credit card data breach, OnePlus confirmed that nearly 40,000 customers were affected by the cyber attack.
“We are deeply sorry to announce that we have indeed been attacked, and up to 40k users at oneplus.net may be affected by the incident. We have sent out an email to all possibly affected users,” said OnePlus on its forum.
Reports from an ongoing investigation with a third-party security agency into the breach revealed that as customers were purchasing OnePlus products, credit card information was reported to be stolen, leading the company to shut down credit card payments for its online store.
Customers should check their credit card statements and immediately report any transaction that you don’t recognize. Customers can reach out to the company on their support page or write an email to security@oneplus.net
