What happened

Exposed data

Recommended actions

• Watch for targeted phishing emails referencing Sephora — attackers weaponise breach data quickly.
• Exposed identity data raises identity-theft risk — consider credit monitoring or a credit freeze.
• Check whether your email address appears in this breach on haveibeenpwned.com.
