ASOS confirmed Tuesday that third-party platforms used to communicate with customers were accessed without authorization, after attackers sent push notifications through its mobile app. The retailer says names and contact details may have been exposed and is warning customers to disregard the alert and avoid its external link.

The attackers claimed they had compromised ASOS's Snowflake environment and stolen customer information. ASOS has not confirmed that claim or disclosed how many customers may be affected. The company says it does not believe payment-card information or account passwords were impacted; the attackers provided no evidence of the claimed Snowflake compromise.
