Webbers Estate Agents reports client data breach via third-party provider

Webbers Estate Agents has notified clients of a potential data breach involving a third-party service provider. The South West-based firm, which operates under the Webbers and Fine & Country brands across Devon, North Cornwall, and Somerset, stated that its own internal systems were not compromised.

The breach appears to involve basic contact details for a subset of the agency’s clients. Affected information may include names, addresses, telephone numbers, and email addresses. The company has not yet disclosed the specific number of clients impacted or the identity of the third-party organization involved.

Webbers has notified the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) and is working with the relevant organizations to determine the full extent of the incident. The agency noted that no financial information or passwords have been reported as compromised at this time.
