Auction house to the wealthy Christie’s says 45,798 people were affected by its recent cyberattack and resulting data theft.
That’s according to public filings made with US state attorneys general on Friday, which also included template letters that are being distributed to customers.
The letter templates didn’t reveal the exact data types involved in the breach; instead, nondescript mail merge code is in its place. However, the public filing page in Maine states that the thieves stole both names and ID document numbers.
