Woman's Ulta Beauty Account Hacked for Two Years, Points Used for Designer Perfumes
A woman's Ulta Beauty loyalty account was compromised for two years, leading to the unauthorized expenditure of her accumulated points on designer fragrances. The account holder, who goes by 'madi' online, discovered the breach after noticing an unfamiliar email address linked to her account during an in-store transaction. Subsequent attempts to log in online proved futile, revealing that the hacker had altered her account details. Investigations showed that since 2023, an individual had been consistently using her points to purchase high-end perfumes and colognes, which were then shipped to an apartment in New York. The incident highlights the importance of regularly monitoring loyalty program accounts and using accumulated points to prevent potential fraud.
