As many of you may know by now, ShopBack suffered a data breach in their backend system last September 2020. This wasn’t limited to just Malaysia as it affected several countries as well. The company was forced to take several drastic measures, including a system-wide force logout and password reset as the leaked data surfaced online.
It can be hard to tell if your ShopBack account was affected by the data breach but now, there is a way to find out. The online tool “Have I Been Pwned (HIBP)” has been updated and it includes more than 20 million ShopBack accounts.
For those of you who aren’t aware, the HIBP tool covered a number of notable data leaks over the years, including Facebook and Jobstreet. All you have to do is simply key in your email address and see what the search results says.
I personally believe that you should your password regardless of whether you are affected or not. It’s better to be safe than sorry after all, given the sheer number of people affected by it.
