Monster Says Hackers Stole Data From Users’ Accounts

Bloomberg reports:

Monster Worldwide Inc., the operator of the most-used job-search Web site, said hackers stole personal details from some of its 75 million users, including names, phone numbers and e-mail addresses.

Monster hasn’t established which countries or how many users were affected, Michelle Brown, a spokeswoman in London, said via phone today. So far, the New York-based company knows that “our database was accessed and that contact and account data was taken, including user IDs, passwords, e-mail addresses, names, phone numbers and some basic demographic data,” she said.
