Security News > 2021 > April > Your stolen ParkMobile data is now free for wannabe scammers
The account information for almost 22 million ParkMobile customers is now in the hands of hackers and scammers after the data was released for free on a hacking forum.
On March 26th, 2021, ParkMobile issued a security notification on their website stating that one of their services was hacked and unauthorized people gained access to customer data.
Brian Krebs reported that a threat actor was privately selling ParkMobile stolen during the data breach to other hackers for a high price of $125,000.
After a threat actor is unable to sell a stolen database or buyers begin to show little interest, it is common for the stolen data to be released on hacker forums for free as a way to increase reputation in the hacking community.

Affected ParkMobile customers should also be on the lookout for phishing emails and SMS texts that use the exposed data to try and steal even more sensitive information from you.
