Last week, a hacker took control of the ticket-distribution website Ticketfly, defacing its homepage, and stealing customers’ personal data. The hacker also posted some of the stolen information online, and threatened to post more, but has yet to follow through on his threat.

Ticketfly’s parent company Eventbrite said it's still investigating the incident, and hasn’t revealed the extent of the data breach, nor how much or what kind of data was stolen. Motherboard downloaded a series of CSV database files posted on a public server by the hacker last week and shared it with Troy Hunt, the founder of the “Have I Been Pwned,” a website dedicated of informing users of data breaches.
