Information about more than 270,000 users of ledger hardware wallet, including their names and addresses, appeared on the raidforums.
Back in late July, hackers gained access to the ledger marketing database, which contained many documents, residential addresses, phone numbers, and email addresses of the company’s customers.
At that time it was reported that hackers were able to get hold of information about 9500 Ledger clients. This time it seems that attackers have gained access to much larger data of users.
