2019 MGM Grand hack worse than thought

2019's MGM Grand hack originally reported that over 10 million accounts had been compromised. It has, this week, been revealed that over 140 million guests were affected.

As ZDNet reports, "The new finding came to light over the weekend after a hacker put up for sale the hotel's data in an ad published on a dark web cybercrime marketplace.

According to the ad, the hacker is selling the details of 142,479,937 MGM hotel guests for a price just over $2,900."

However, the MGM data could be even bigger than the 142 million count, posts on Russian-speaking hacking forums promoted the MGM Grand hack as containing details on more than 200 million hotel guests.
