Recently, someone with bad intensions hacked dominos websites and stole personal records of people who used to order dominos Pizza online. He becomes successful in stealing customer’s phone numbers, email ids and home addresses. This stolen data can be used for sending spam emails, unwanted phone calls etc.
It is good on the part of dominos that it informed people about this incidence; however, there may be many websites and companies which never bother to information its customer if anything similar happens with them. Spammer and bad elements always look for authentic data of people so that they can send them spam emails. Sometimes, these people can use this data for creating more troubles for you or robbing you.
