Adele angers fans as ticket sales for her new tour leave them exposed and potentially broke!
- Fans buying tickets were shown personal data of other customers, including: name, last name, adress and credit card details!
- Adele's management messed up by sending the same activation code to multiple customers, thus exposing their private info to random strangers.
- Fans sent Twitter into frenzy talking about their personal info being stolen: "The website [code] has been written insecurely. It's spitting out other people's information - information which they would expect to have been kept private."
- Adele's team refuses to take the blame for what happened: "There's no evidence that this included credit card numbers or passwords. We take the privacy of our users very seriously, and we're looking further into the matter to ensure it doesn't happen again."
