A user on a hacker forum, who goes by the alias GhostyTongue, has claimed to have accessed the internal software of popular children’s family entertainment chain Chuck E. Cheese. The user stated that they have obtained 7 APKs and numerous images from what they believe to be a data breach of Chuck E. Cheese’s systems.
Falcon Feeds, a threat intelligence service, tweeted about the alleged data breach, stating that a user on the hacker forum claimed to have access to Chuck E. Cheese Play Pass internal software. According to GhostyTongue’s post on the forum, they have gained access to APKs that are able to connect to Chuck E. Cheese’s Wi-Fi network. Once connected, changes to game settings and prices can be made, potentially allowing for fraudulent activities.
GhostyTongue also mentioned that the APKs could be used to modify details on Chuck E. Cheese play pass cards. This includes adding or removing items from the cards. The hacker claims to have data about APIs and DLLs as well. Although Cyber Express OSINT investigation has not found any information about a cyber attack on the company leading to a data leak, previous instances have shown that targeted cyber attacks can result in unauthorized access.
Currently, the Chuck E. Cheese data breach remains unconfirmed by the company. The Cyber Express has reached out to Chuck E. Cheese for confirmation and is waiting for a response. As of now, the company’s website is accessible. GhostyTongue’s post on the hacker forum indicates that they may have accessed 86.61MB of data from the alleged cyber attack.
It is important to note that the Chuck E. Cheese chain made headlines in February of this year due to a shooting incident. The gunman involved was detained in Shelby County jail on a $125,000 bond. Despite this incident, Chuck E. Cheese continues to have a significant presence in nearly 47 states in the U.S. and operates in 17 countries worldwide.
The hacker forum where GhostyTongue made their claim is not an isolated case of illegal sales of stolen items. Another user on the same forum, under the name Gagablik, advertised selling wireless headphones and earbuds by Beats on a dark web marketplace. The post mentioned a 50% discount on the headphones.
Hacker forums often facilitate the trade of various stolen items. The average prices of different products on the dark web include $110 for credit card data, $75 for a hacked account on a communication platform, $60 for stolen banking login details with a minimum balance of $2,000, $2,300 for cryptocurrency accounts, $60 for Gmail account details, $20 for a Twitter account, $5 for 1000 LinkedIn company page followers, $30 for an Uber driver account, $140 for a California driver’s license scan, and $100 for Walmart prescription Rx labels.
