Overview

In 2021, credit provider DivideBuy  experienced a cyber-attack, during which hackers managed to access customer data.  

While the cybercriminals did not access any bank account or credit card information, the exposed personal details could still be used by cybercriminals to impersonate individuals, commit identity theft, or target victims with sophisticated phishing schemes. This type of data is often enough to trick victims into divulging additional sensitive information, such as account credentials or financial details, which could lead to further fraud or financial losses. 

We are monitoring the situation closely. Register your interest and we’ll keep you updated if one of our regulated UK partner law firms is able to take this claim forward.
