Two years after data breach, Australians’ Medicare records sold on the Dark Web.

Australians’ Medicare details are still being illegally offered for sale on the darknet, almost two
years after Guardian Australia revealed the serious privacy
breach. Screenshots of the Empire Market, provided to Guardian
Australia, show the vendor Medicare Machine has rebranded as Medicare
Madness, offering Medicare details for $US21. Other
vendors charge up to $US340 by offering fake Medicare cards alongside
other fake forms of identification – such as a New South Wales licence.
