Hackers claim they obtained barcode data for hundreds of thousands of tickets to Eras tour and demand millions in ransom
Hackers claimed this week that they had obtained barcode data for hundreds of thousands of tickets to Taylor Swift’s Eras tour, demanding that Ticketmaster pay millions in ransom money or they would leak the information online.
The hacking group posted samples of the data to an online forum– ticket data on Swift’s shows in Indianapolis, Miami, and New Orleans – and alleged it possessed an additional 30m million barcodes for other high-profile concerts and sporting events.
