Hackers have published the personal data of about 8.7 million customers from three major airports after the operator refused to pay a ransom.<\/p>\n

The dump covers people who used Manchester, London Stansted and East Midlands airports,\u00a0reports<\/a>\u00a0the BBC.<\/p>\n

Americans and other foreigners who flew through those airports can be in the set if they joined the airport Wi-Fi or booked parking, a lounge or Fast Track.<\/p>\n

The malicious group wrote,<\/p>\n

\u201cToday we are releasing the Manchester Group database. Half a terabyte, and every byte of it is pure PII [personally identifiable information].\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

Have I Been Pwned says the files include email addresses, phone numbers, postal addresses, vehicle plates and travel and browsing history.<\/p>\n

People in the dump should watch for phishing and scams. MAG says no bank or payment details were in the system that was hit.<\/p>\n

Manchester Airports Group, which runs the airports, says flying through on an airline ticket alone is not enough to put someone in the set.<\/p>\n

The group, which is the U.K.\u2019s largest airport operator, refused the ransom and says it has contacted affected customers and people with upcoming bookings.<\/p>\n

\u201cAt no point has passenger safety or aviation security been compromised.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n
