Chanel’s Data Breach: When Fashion Meets Phishing Fiasco!
Chanel has become the latest fashion victim—not to a runway mishap, but to a data breach in the ongoing wave of Salesforce data theft attacks. The breach exposed U.S. customer contact details, leaving Chanel to face the music and possibly a few angry phone calls.

Hot Take:
Well, it seems Chanel’s latest fashion statement involves the art of data exposure. Move over, little black dress, and make way for a little black database breach. Apparently, the only thing they can’t accessorize with is cybersecurity. While Chanel dabbles in haute couture, they might want to consider adding a cybersecurity cape to their ensemble. It’s the latest in data breach chic!
Key Points:
- Chanel is the latest victim in a series of Salesforce data theft attacks.
- The breach exposed personal contact information of U.S. customers.
- ShinyHunters extortion group is behind these attacks.
- Salesforce was not directly compromised; attacks involve social engineering.
- Other brands affected include Adidas, Qantas, and members of the LVMH group.
