Greenpacket-owned Kiplepay which offers e-wallet services has informed its Kiple Visa Prepaid Card users that there is a risk of their data could have been breached through a recent third-party payment gateway provider.
The company informed its users following Bank Negara Malaysia’s notification highlighting the recent potential third-party data breach incident and has requested that Kiplepay notify affected cardholders. It added that BNM has asked providers to inform users that additional protective measures are being taken to protect them against risks of fraudulent or unauthorised transactions that may arise from this incident.
This comes following a data breach report highlighted by iPay88 which is the payment gateway for many financial services providers.
Kiplepay is the first to report a possible breach but concerns are there for more providers to start coming forward on data leakages.
