I haven’t been a medibank customer for over 7 years. They sent me an email about this cyber attack. Why am I being sent an email when I am not a customer. They just still hold my personal information.

No where in Medibank’s advice to the public, is there any reference to them negotiating with the alleged entity behind the attack. What the heck do you know ABC that you aren’t disclosing in this article? So has data actually been stolen?
