No evidence customer data published on dark web: Origin

Key points

• Origin Energy's chairman says there is no evidence that customer data stolen in a July hack has been published on the internet or the dark web. Hackers accessed the data of roughly 900,000 customers and former customers, including names, addresses and dates of birth.
• Up to 60 full bank account numbers and about 100 ID document numbers were also accessed. Chairman Scott Perkins urged affected customers to stay alert to scams.
• Origin faced criticism for not informing customers until July 22, after first becoming aware of a possible breach on July 2.
