What happened
Impact
The potential exposure covered approximately 15,500 non-member entries for two campaigns conducted since May 2026. That figure includes repeat entries and is not a count of unique people. May describes the campaign period, not the beginning of the attack. Member, postcard and X entries were excluded. [1]
Possible data fields included names, ages, gender, occupation, marital and family details, phone numbers, email and postal addresses, and survey answers. Driver’s licence, credit-card and bank-account information were excluded. Fujicco had not confirmed public posting or misuse, but was responding as though the information had been acquired. [1]
