The company said hackers broke into its third-party ticketing system between February 4 and February 7 and stole reams of support tickets, which contained personal information submitted by customers.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The data breach notice said the hackers took customer names and contact information, as well as other unspecified personal data that Hims &amp; Hers left redacted in the letter.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Although the company says customer medical records were not affected by the breach, the nature of customer support systems means that the data may contain sensitive information about a person&rsquo;s account, personal information, and healthcare.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It&rsquo;s not yet known how many individuals had personal information compromised in the hack. Under California law, companies are required to disclose data breaches involving 500 or more state residents.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Jake Martin, a spokesperson for Hims &amp; Hers, told TechCrunch in a statement the company was hit by a social engineering attack, in which hackers trick employees into granting access to their systems. The spokesperson said the stolen data &ldquo;primarily included customer names and email addresses.&rdquo; The company did not say what specific types of data were taken, when asked by TechCrunch.<\/p>\n<div class=\"internal-linking-related-contents\"><a href=\"https:\/\/jobuzo.com\/en\/12-weeks-jail-for-school-it-support-technician-who-took-upskirt-videos-of-teachers\/\" class=\"template-1\"><span class=\"cta\">News :<\/span><span class=\"postTitle\">&lt;div&gt;12 weeks' jail for school IT support technician who took upskirt videos of teachers&lt;\/div&gt;<\/span><\/a><\/div><p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The company would not say if it has received any communication from the hackers, such as a demand for money.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In recent months, customer support and ticketing systems have become rich targets for financially motivated hackers, who have raided databases containing customer information and extorted companies into paying a ransom.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Last year, Discord had a data breach that affected its customer support ticketing system and exposed the government-issued IDs of around 70,000 people who had submitted their driver&rsquo;s licenses and passports to the company to verify their age.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><sub><\/sub><\/p>\n<div>Telehealth giant Hims &amp; Hers says its customer support system was hacked<\/div>\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hims &amp; Hers, the telehealth company that sells weight-loss drugs and sexual health prescriptions, has confirmed a data breach affecting its third-party customer service platform.
