What to do after Ticketmaster data breach
Ticketmaster says it determined that some account holders’ personal data may have been accessed.
NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WSMV) – Ticketmaster account holders were recently notified of a data security incident that may have compromised personal information.
Ticketmaster discovered that an unauthorized third party obtained information from a cloud database hosted by a “third party data services provider,” according to an email from Ticketmaster. The unauthorized activity occurred between April 2 and May 18, and on May 23, Ticketmaster says it determined that some account holders’ personal data may have been accessed.
Ticketmaster says account holders should remain vigilant to protect against identity theft and fraud, including monitoring accounts, account statements and free credit reports for signs of suspicious activity.
“To further protect your identity and as a precaution, we are also offering you identity monitoring with TransUnion at no cost to you,” Ticketmaster said in the email. “Identity monitoring will look out for your personal data on the dark web and provide you with alerts for 1 year from the date of enrollment if your personally identifiable information is found online.
