TOKYO – Bandai Namco Entertainment Inc., a major Japanese video game publisher, announced late Tuesday that one of its contractors suffered unauthorized access, resulting in the leak of approximately 346,000 records, including email addresses.<\/p>\n
Subscriber information from The Gundam Base Members, a point-based service that allows users to earn and redeem points for merchandise, was leaked following a security breach involving an email service provided by contractor Ymirlink Inc.<\/p>\n
The mail service was suspended immediately after the unauthorized access was discovered.<\/p>\n
Bandai Namco said information such as names, addresses and credit card numbers was not compromised.<\/p>\n
Although it has not confirmed any misuse of the leaked email addresses, the company urged users to remain vigilant against impersonation attempts and phishing scams.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"TOKYO – Bandai Namco Entertainment Inc., a major Japanese video game publisher, announced late Tuesday that one of…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":897416,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[4,450,451,3,452,453],"class_list":["post-897415","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-breaking-news","tag-breaking-news","tag-breakingnews","tag-headlines","tag-news","tag-top-stories","tag-topstories"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/897415","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=897415"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/897415\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/897416"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=897415"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=897415"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=897415"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
