Details of Pakistani mobile subscribers have surfaced online after a hacker tried to sell the package for 300 bitcoins equivalent to $2.1 million. The data leak exposed personally identifiable information (PII) for 115 million subscribers. The exposure took place in two subsequent breaches that exposed the details of 44 million and 55 million subscribers, respectively. None of the affected mobile service providers has acknowledged any data breach on their servers. There is an ongoing investigation by cybersecurity services in Pakistan to establish the source of the leak.
