Profile
The organisation operates as a luxury brands retailer focused on the Latin American market. It maintains a retail presence that spans multiple countries in the region. It collaborates with more than twenty high‑end brands to supply its stores. It is also identified by the alias of a luxury retail partner in Latin America.
In February 2023, the organisation experienced a data breach. The breach exposed personal information belonging to approximately seven hundred ninety thousand customers. The disclosed data included full names of the affected individuals. It also contained email addresses associated with those customers. Phone numbers were among the pieces of information that were compromised. Home addresses formed another component of the exposed data set. The compromised information was alleged to have been taken from a database that dated several months prior to the breach. Financial data was not explicitly mentioned as part of the exposed information.
Details of the breach were posted on a hacker forum. The threat actor responsible for the posting is described as relatively new and lacking an established reputation. The organisation did not respond to initial inquiries made about the incident. The incident underscores the persistent targeting of major retailers by cyber threat actors.
