The affected institutions exposed a cumulative total of approximately 100,000 pieces of customer information, including names, contact details, and ID numbers. The affected institutions include Streami, the operator of Gopax, and the cryptocurrency trading platform Prabang, which previously disclosed that it suffered a hack on October 2, resulting in the leak of some customers' personal information.
