Santander Data Breach: Hackers Selling Info of 30M Customers

TL;DR Summary
The threat actor ShinyHunters claims to be selling data from a recent breach of Santander Bank, affecting 30 million customers and employees in Chile, Spain, and Uruguay. This follows Santander's disclosure of a data breach two weeks ago. ShinyHunters, known for previous high-profile data breaches, is offering the data for $2 million, though Santander's customer numbers suggest the claim may be exaggerated. The sale was first listed on the Exploit hacking forum before appearing on the newly restored BreachForums, raising questions about its authenticity.
