Three affected by Bulldog privacy breach
Bulldog revealed today that only three customers have been contacted by third parties after 100,000 people's personal details were stolen two years ago.
Although none of the customers incurred any financial loss due to the security breach, many are concerned about the company's ability to keep sensitive personal information under wraps.
Of particular concern was that customers received a lack of information about the situation even after the breach was found out, reports vnunet.com.
