Fraudsters targeting Virgin Media data leak victims has been a real concern over the last few years since the personal information of some 900,000 people was exposed in this incident.
Contrary to what a lot of people may believe, fraudsters actually only need a little bit of personal information and they could try to contact you to commit fraud and scams. They are clever at what they do, and they know the ways in which they can dupe people into believing that they are legitimate agents from a real organisation, so people need to be wary at all times.

GDPR fines and compensation claims
GDPR fines and compensation claims are two very different parts of the legal process in respect of what happens in the wake of a data breach, leak or a hack.
The ICO – the Information Commissioner’s Office – is responsible for upholding data protection compliance in the UK, as well as responsible for issuing monetary penalties if something goes wrong. Separately, victims can be entitled to claim compensation with an expert lawyer because the ICO does not usually get involved in compensation matters.

Data breaches identified by third parties – Virgin Media
Data breaches identified by third parties often mean that information has been exposed for a prolonged period of time before the issue is rectified.
This can mean that there are greater risks for the victims involved who may be at imminent risk of fraud and theft without even knowing that they could be targeted. It is right (and the law) that an organisation affected by a privacy breach informs victims who are involved as quickly as possible to allow them to be vigilant and to protect themselves from falling victim to crime. When people are not forewarned, they are not forearmed.
The Virgin Media data leak group action that we are pursuing for thousands of people is an example of this kind of incident, which affected some 900,000 people with information exposed for a 10-month period.
