Some Gemini customers have recently been the target of phishing campaigns, and the exchange is blaming it on a ‘Third Party.’ Gemini claims that a hacking attack by a third party led to the collection of their customer email addresses and partial phone numbers.
Thankfully the hacker did not gain full phone numbers, as certain numeric digits were obfuscated. The leaked database did not include sensitive personal information such as names, addresses, and other Know Your Customer information.
The Gemini exchange also temporarily went offline during the day after the biggest data leak was found. However, as of now, the exchange is fully functional.
