What happened
In February 2026, Dutch telco Odido was the victim of a data breach and subsequent extortion attempt. Shortly after, a total of 6M unique email addresses were published across four separate data releases over consecutive days. The exposed data includes names, physical addresses, phone numbers, bank account numbers, dates of birth, customer service notes and passport, driver’s licence and European
What was exposed
- Bank account numbers. Bank account numbers were exposed. Tell your bank and watch for payments you did not make.
- Customer service records. This kind of data was included in the breach. Treat it as exposed and be careful with messages that use it.
- Dates of birth. Dates of birth were exposed. They help criminals prove they are you, and they cannot be changed.
- Driver's licenses. This kind of data was included in the breach. Treat it as exposed and be careful with messages that use it.
- Email addresses. Email addresses were exposed. Expect more spam and phishing aimed at those addresses.
- Genders. Genders were exposed. On its own it is low risk, but it adds to a profile of you.
- Government issued IDs. Government identity details were exposed. Identity theft is the main risk, so contact the issuer of the document.
- Names. Names were exposed. Scammers use real names to make a message look personal.
- Passport numbers. Passport numbers were exposed. Contact the passport office if you think the number is being misused.
- Phone numbers. Phone numbers were exposed. Expect scam calls and text messages, some of them pretending to be the organisation.
- Physical addresses. Home or postal addresses were exposed. They can be used to make a scam letter or a fake identity look real.
What to do now
It depends on what was exposed, so these steps follow the list above.
If payment details were exposed
- Check your bank and card statements for charges you do not recognise.
- Tell your bank. Ask about replacing the card or watching the account.
- Be wary of calls or messages that say they are from your bank and ask you to move money or read out a code.
If identity documents or numbers were exposed
- Contact the organisation that issued the document (for example the passport office or the licensing authority) and ask what to do.
- Contact your national identity theft or cyber support service for help with identity theft (for example IDCARE in Australia and New Zealand).
- Watch for credit enquiries or accounts you did not open.
If your contact details were exposed
- Expect more spam, scam calls and phishing. Do not click links or open attachments in messages you did not expect.
- If a message mentions this breach, do not reply. Go to the organisation's own website or app instead of using a link in the message.
Whatever was exposed
- Check which other breaches include your own email address and phone number.
- Keep an eye on your accounts for a few months. Breached data is often used long after the breach.
- If you think someone is using your details, report it to the organisation and to your national cyber crime reporting service.
Check your own exposure
- Password leak check: find out whether a password has appeared in a breach. The password never leaves your browser.
- Free domain security scan: grade the email, DNS and website security of a domain you own.
