The authenticity of an alleged Activision data breach has been confirmed after @vxunderground, a Twitter user, overnight posted important Call of Duty information to his account.
Despite all the data breaches, the user only shared a few photographs about the Modern Warfare 2 DLC release schedule on Twitter. Plans for the planned Call of Duty 2023 (Codenamed Jupiter) and Call of Duty 2024 (Codenamed Cerberus) DLC packs for Modern Warfare 2 and private employee details were discovered in the files.
Full names, email addresses, phone numbers, wages, places of employment, addresses, and other information about employees are gathered.
Activision was hacked on December 4, 2022, according to vxunderground, and the files were recently given to him by a lone person who could not sell the breach’s information. It was mentioned in a dialogue that the hacker managed to enter a Human Resources (HR) employee’s computer and was able to scrape the data from there quickly.
Although it was not proven, the attack only affected one employee’s PC. The computer did, however, have all Activision employee information because of the duties assigned to an HR person. No player or user data is believed to have been compromised.
Plans for the Modern Warfare II DLC have already been revealed online. However, as the information was discovered in December 2022, some specifics still need to be updated.
