    Hello @LeFox

    Thank you for your patience.

    Our investigation has found that personally identifiable information (PII) related to stockholders has been leaked online in Germany. The exposed data includes sensitive details such as emails, IP addresses, phone numbers, full names, and other personal information. This information was publicly shared on the internet and is not specifically linked to any stockholder services in Germany.

    We strongly advise you to take proactive steps to safeguard your personal information. This includes monitoring your online accounts for any suspicious activity and updating passwords if needed, strengthening your account security by enabling 2FA wherever possible, being wary of unexpected emails, messages, or calls requesting sensitive information, ensuring strong and using unique passwords for each account to reduce the risk of credential leaks,

    We encourage you to stay vigilant and take necessary precautions to minimize potential risks associated with this data breach.
