Asos is investigating the incident and has assured customers that their website and app are functioning normally.
The retailer indicated that while basic personal information may have been accessed, there is no evidence that payment details or passwords were compromised. Customers are advised to remain vigilant and avoid clicking on suspicious links or responding to unsolicited communications.
Asos users should stay alert for phishing attempts following the unauthorized notification. Watch for suspicious emails or texts claiming to be from Asos, especially those asking for personal info. Enable two-step verification on accounts to enhance security.
