Domino's Pizza in France and Belgium has seemingly been cooked by cybercriminals who are holding the company's user information ransom for €30,000 ($40,602 USD). The group Rex Mundi demanded payment from the pizza icon in exchange for not publishing customer information online.
The group tweeted the demand on their Twitter account before it was suspended.
"If you're a @dominos_pizzafr customer, u may want to know that we have offered Domino's not to publish your data in exchange for 30,000EUR."
— Rex Mundi (@RexMundi_Anon) June 13, 2014
The group then proceeded to taunt customers and Domino's alike with a follow up message which reads:
"Find out tonight whether #dominos_pizzafr thinks their customers' privacy is worth 30,000EUR."
— Rex Mundi (@RexMundi_Anon) June 16, 2014
According to a statement that DigitalSpy picked up from Domino's Pizza chief executive Andre ten Wold, "There are clear indications that something is broken on our server. The information contained in them is protected," he told Dutch newspaper De Standaart. "Financial data, such as credit cards, has not been stolen."
ten Wold says that the demands will not be met but they have filed a legal complaint against Rex Mundi in a Paris court.
Rex Mundi has previously attempted to extort money from a number of other companies, including US payday loans operation AmeriCash Advance and Belgian hosting firm Alfa Hosting.
Seems Domino's themselves couldn't avoid le Noid which is Rex Mundi!
