July 1, 2025
•[ data exposure, software error, personally identifiable information ]
PayPal disclosed that a software error in its PayPal Working Capital (PPWC) loan application exposed sensitive personal information, including Social Security numbers, for nearly six months in 2025.

February 13, 2026
•[ data breach, social engineering, vishing ]
TechRadar reported that ShinyHunters claimed to have breached CarGurus and stolen about 1.7 million corporate records, threatening to release the data by a stated deadline. The report linked the claim to a broader wave of social-engineering vishing attacks used to obtain employee credentials/MFA codes and then access SSO dashboards (Okta/Entra/Google) and downstream applications. At the time of reporting in the article, CarGurus had not publicly confirmed the breach details, the precise intrusion window, or exactly what categories of data were taken beyond the actors claim, so this record reflects an alleged data-theft event pending independent confirmation.
youX
