While there's no denying that OnePlus makes excellent smartphone (and software,) their security is below par for a company of that caliber. Last year, the credit card details of around 40,000 OnePlus customers were stolen by an unknown hacker. Today, the OnePlus security team just posted a notice saying that customer information such as name, phone, email, and shipping address data for some customers was exposed via an unauthorized third-party. Interestingly, the company didn't state how many users were affected by the breach.

Unlike last year's gaffe, OnePlus confirms that payment information and passwords were not exposed. Additionally, OnePlus states that not all customers have been affected. The ones who have been should receive an email intimating them about the same. The company requests all affected users to beware of spam and phishing emails. If you've received such an email, feel free to contact OnePlus support for more assistance, though we're not sure what that will accomplish.
