Gemini
What Happened
In late 2022, data allegedly taken from the Gemini crypto exchange was posted to a public hacking forum. The data consisted of email addresses and partial phone numbers, which Gemini later attributed to an incident at a third-party vendor. The source of the breach was later established as being Twilio who described the incident as stemming from "a sophisticated social engineering attack designed to steal employee credentials".
