The leaked information potentially includes 240 million lines of data containing phone numbers, email addresses, bank accounts and booking details, and is available on the dark web.
Shanghai police are investigating one of the largest data leaks on the mainland that could affect about 130 million clients of Huazhu Hotels Group.
Huazhu, which owns more than 10 hotel brands and manages more than 3,800 hotels across 382 mainland cities, reported the data breach after finding a post on a dark web forum about the sale of its clients’ personal data and booking information.
