Right, because international hackers are going to mobilize boots on the ground across the world to steal your fucking Optiplex.

I think it's more likely that an attacker would make a fake collections call if you bought something really expensive, especially if they can prove you bought on credit or something. A little ChatGPT and you'd have a targeted script to use.

The leak didn't include phone numbers or emails but I'm sure there will be attempts at spear phishing businesses since they can figure out the business name from the physical address.
