Data breach exposes over 56 million clothing store customers

A cybersecurity vendor claimed last month that a hacker stole data from the fashion retailer Hot Topic, including the personal information of millions of customers. At that time, there was no confirmation from the retailer itself. However, a breach notification site has now confirmed that the personal data of 56,904,909 users was found online and leaked from customers of Hot Topic, Torrid and Box Lunch.

This data includes email addresses, physical addresses, phone numbers, purchase history, gender and dates of birth.
