Based on what we've learned so far in our investigation, attackers accessed the following Facebook account information: Name. Email addresses. Phone number.

These locations are determined by the places named in the posts, such as a landmark or restaurant, not location data from a device. - The 15 most recent searches you've entered into the Facebook search bar. - People or Pages you follow on Facebook.
- robinwassen 8y agoHad the same list as you, I was just happy it did not mention Messenger since that would be accessing truly private data. The data you listed is semi-public in my case.
- pbhjpbhj 8y agoThere's lots of "verification" data there, and lots of info to make convincing phishing attempts. That's serious juju. Like if I say "I'm calling from Samsung about your SMA500FU, phone number #####, ..." that gives me a lot of trust for a phish. I wonder, say, how many phones I could get by mailing people an envelope saying their phone was at risk of exploding, sending corresponding texts, etc..
