Spoon data breach

KRSouth Korea · Spoon Inc.

SBS News reported a data breach at Spoon (South Korea) on 25 October 2026, and it has been confirmed. Exposed: Financial account and card details, Email addresses, Phone numbers and Names.

If Spoon had your data

  1. Look for Spoon Inc.’s own notice or letter: it should say what of yours was involved. Keep it.
  2. Call your bank on the number printed on your card (never one from a message), check recent payments and ask for a new card.
  3. Expect scams that use your details: calls, texts or emails pretending to be Spoon Inc., your bank or the police. Never give codes or passwords, never approve a sign-in you did not start, never move money.

One email to confirm first. We use your address only for this alert, and one click deletes it.
