Matt Lock, Director of Sales Engineers at Varonis:
“Any popular website like Ticketmaster is good target for criminals. Consumers who purchased tickets must be careful and vigilant – the scammers will be out to further prey on those affected by the breach. It’s bad enough if your credit card information is stolen, but don’t fall for a scam in its wake. Don’t respond to or click on any text messages or emails as scammers can easily camouflage their true identities. If you get a call from a number you don’t recognize – don’t answer. Check your payment card and bank statements on the regular to ensure nothing is amiss – criminals may try to charge small amounts to your card. If you suspect your payment card information was stolen, consider replacing your card. Know that criminals may now have your personal details and you could be a target in the long-term.”
