What happened

In October 2024, French ISP "Free" suffered a data breach which was subsequently posted for sale and later, leaked publicly. The data included 14M unique email addresses along with names, physical addresses, phone numbers, genders, dates of birth and for many records, IBAN bank account numbers. Free advised that the numbers were "not enough to make a direct debit from a bank".

What data leaked

  • Bank account numbers
  • Dates of birth
  • Genders
  • Names
  • Phone numbers
  • Physical addresses

What to do if you had an account

  1. Expect targeted phishing. Leaked contact details are used to write convincing fake messages that mention the breached company or your real name. Do not click links in unexpected emails or texts about this account; go to the site by typing its address.
  2. Watch for scam calls and SIM swaps. Be suspicious of calls and texts that claim to be from your bank or a courier. Ask your mobile operator for a port-out or SIM-change PIN if it offers one.
  3. Check your bank statements. Review recent card and account transactions and report anything you do not recognise. If full card numbers were exposed, ask your bank to replace the card.
  4. Guard against identity fraud. Identity documents and dates of birth cannot be changed like a password. Consider a credit freeze or fraud alert where your country offers one, and be wary of anyone who 'verifies' you using those details.
