The Wisepay data breach is said to have affected around 300 school payment systems across the two-day period. The breach may have affected any parents who inputted their details into the payment page on their schools\u2019 systems.<\/p>\n<p>Wisepay took down their site as soon as the breach was discovered at 10am on the 5<sup>th<\/sup> October and have stated that only a small number of parents should have been affected as their system does not require daily payments.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<h3><strong>Information exposed in the Wisepay data breach<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>We understand that the hackers were able to modify the Wisepay payments page to send users to their own \u2018spoof\u2019 payment page. This means that users could be directly imputing their card details into the hacker\u2019s website, not the Wisepay one as they would have thought. This means that the hacker had access to card details of all the attempted payments made over the weekend, leaving victims open to fraudulent attacks by the cybercriminal(s).<\/p>\n<p>In a letter to schools, Wisepay has said it does not store any payment information itself and none of their own records were leaked. It was explained to parents that, if they did not attempt to make a payment to one of the 300 affected schools between 2<sup>nd<\/sup> and 5<sup>th<\/sup> October, it is most likely that they will have not been affected.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>What do I do if my card information was stolen?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>If your card information has been stolen in the Wisepay data breach, it is important to cancel or pause the card you used and to monitor your account for any fraudulent activity that may have occurred since the incident. Speak to your bank or building society the relevant company involving the card and seek their advice and instruction also.<\/p>\n<p>In the letter to schools, Wisepay warned parents who think they might have been affected by the Wisepay data breach to pause or cancel the payment cards they used on their site. Also, in a pre-emptive attempt to stop the hackers, they also said to change any online banking passwords that relate to their Wisepay account as well.<\/p>\n<p>It is important to note that, if your data has been stolen in the Wisepay data breach, you could be eligible to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.groupactionlawyers.co.uk\/contact\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><strong>make a compensation claim with the Group Action Lawyers<\/strong>.<\/a><\/p>\n<h3><strong>Start your data breach claim<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>If you have been a victim of the Wisepay data breach, you could be eligible to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.groupactionlawyers.co.uk\/contact\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><strong>claim compensation with the Group Action Lawyers. <\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>If you have been subject to any fraudulent activity as a result of the breach, you could claim compensation for any money lost.
