Eurostar has forced all of its customers to reset their passwords after detecting an `` unauthorised attempt '' to hack into its systems and access their accounts . Customers reported receiving an email on Tuesday stating that the company had identified an attempt to access eurostar.com accounts using users ' email and passwords between the 15 and 19 of October . Eurostar confirmed that credit card details and payment details were not compromised Attack.Databreach because the company does not store that information online . Eurostar has yet to confirm how many people have been affected by this data breach Attack.Databreach or whether any data has been taken Attack.Databreach . The company has reported the data breach Attack.Databreach to the Information Commissioner 's Office . `` We have taken this action as a precaution because we identified what we believe to be an unauthorised automated attempt to access Attack.Databreach eurostar.com accounts using your email address and password , '' the company told customers . `` We 've since carried out an investigation which shows that your account was logged into between the 15 and 19 October . If you did n't log in during this period , there 's a possibility your account was accessed Attack.Databreach by this unauthorised attempt . '' Customers were told to check their accounts for `` anything unusual '' and update login details on any other site where they use the same password . A Eurostar spokesman said : `` This email was sent after we identified what we believe to be an unauthorised automated attempt to access customer accounts , so as a precaution , we asked all account holders to reset their password . We deliberately never store any payment details or bank card information , so there is no possibility of those being compromised Attack.Databreach . '' An ICO spokesman said : “ We ’ ve received data breach Attack.Databreach report from Eurostar and are making enquiries. ” Last week , British Airways revealed that almost 200,000 further passengers may have had their personal data stolen Attack.Databreach by hackers in the September attack Attack.Databreach in what experts described as one of the biggest breaches Attack.Databreach of consumer data the UK had ever seen .

New statements from Apple make it clear that they do not believe a hacker , or group of hackers , breached any of their systems . This comes after a recent report from Motherboard that a hacker gang called the `` Turkish Crime Family '' is threatening to remotely wipe up to 559 million iPhones by April 7 . The hackers claim they hold an alleged cache of stolen accounts , and their goal is to shake down Attack.Ransom the big Apple for $ 75,000 in Bitcoin or Ethereum cryptocurrency . Alternatively , in lieu of those options , they will even accept Attack.Ransom $ 100,000 in iTunes gift cards ( a potentially risky option for them ) . Apple responded to the allegation that the hackers breached Attack.Databreach its systems , assuring their systems were not compromised Attack.Databreach , but did not confirm if the hackers do in fact hold Attack.Databreach an entire collection of Apple IDs and passwords . Whatever information they do have , probably came from previously comprised third-parties . `` If the list is legitimate , it was not obtained Attack.Databreach through any hack Attack.Databreach of Apple , '' an Apple spokesperson told Fortune in an email . `` There have not been any breaches Attack.Databreach in any of Apple 's systems including iCloud and Apple ID . '' Even if the data did n't come from an Apple breach Attack.Databreach , it could still mean your iCloud login details are out there . Fortune suggested that the logins could be from the LinkedIn hack Attack.Databreach , in which login info from 117 million accounts was sold on the black market site `` The Real Deal . '' Though , if the Turkish Crime Family really has 559 million accounts , well , a mere fraction of the 117 million from LinkedIn does n't really cut it . The hackers have been sending login information to media companies in an effort to gather attention to their scam . For example , The Next Web received a small fraction of the alleged data from the hackers , and cross-referenced the info with the site Have I Been Pwned , which checks to see if your email or username has been compromised Attack.Databreach in a hack . Most of the samples provided to TNW do n't appear to have been involved in the LinkedIn hack or other hacks in the Pwned database , but TNW was able to access Attack.Databreach the accounts with the login information provided by the hackers , so the info looks legitimate . They ca n't test every login , so the small sample may not be indicative of the whole . The Turkish Crime Family also noted to TNW that all conversations with Apple were actually kept private and never reported to Motherboard . Instead , the conversation between the Turkish Crime Family and Motherboard were led by a member that has now been removed for his `` inaccuracy '' and `` lack of professionalism , '' an the group denies the authenticity of Motherboard 's report . Overall , the hacking team seems to have a hard time sticking to one story . Now , the hacker group is confirming Apple 's statement that its systems have not been breached Attack.Databreach , and that the stolen data was obtained Attack.Databreach through previously compromised systems over the last five years . The Turkish Crime Family is , in fact , not contradicting Apple . They did not breach Attack.Databreach the company , nor did they ever state to Motherboard that they stole Attack.Databreach the info directly from Apple . Rather , after Motherboard 's breaking March 21 report , a breach was assumed by some news outlets such as BGR , though most media sites never directly stated that the hackers breached Apple . The Turkish Crime Family 's initial response to Motherboard , and the group 's only statement , was to extort Attack.Ransom Apple over an alleged cache of iCloud and other Apple email accounts . The group never stated where their cache of data came from until today when they contacted TNW in response to Apple .
