The
issue affected customer information such as name, contact
information, date of birth, hashed Social Security number,
account identifiers and information related to transactions with
BetMGM, the company said.
BetMGM did not immediately respond when asked about the number
of customers impacted by to the breach, which it believes
occurred in May this year.
The company said it became aware of the matter on Nov. 28,
adding that it has no evidence that patron passwords or account
funds were accessed in connection with this issue.
BetMGM's online operations were not compromised, the company
added.
Last month, sports-betting firm DraftKings Inc also reported a
security issue wherein login information of some customers was
compromised on other websites.
