Orange France was once again hit by hackers and the details of 1.3 million customers in France were exposed. Orange said hackers accessed a technical mailing and SMS platform.

The company warned its French customers to beware of phishing attempts following a hack discovered on 18 April. The security breach exposed customers' first names, surnames, and in some cases, their email address, mobile and fixed-line phone numbers, dates of birth and the mobile carrier they were using.

Three months ago, the French carrier's orange.fr website was hacked and 800,000 users' data was stolen.
