Latitude Financial faces possible class action after millions affected by data breach

Cyber-attack in which information of 14 million customers has been exposed dubbed Australia’s largest to date

[Smudge]

@Tim Received an email from Latitude as I have a Gem Visa card for hire purchases (hardly ever use it). However, it appears I don't need to do anything, as they'll have an old version number of my driver licence. I signed up for the card in 2015, and replaced my licence in 2017 when it was due, so it'll have a different version number. I must say the email I received wasn't hugely clear.
