A significant data breach at the Japanese car-sharing service Times Car, operated by Times Mobility (formerly Park24), has compromised the personal information of approximately 6.6 million accounts. The breach involves current members, former members, and incomplete membership applications.

Initial reports indicated that the leaked data included names, addresses, dates of birth, phone numbers, and email addresses, with potential exposure of driver’s license images. Subsequent details clarified that roughly 1.6 million accounts specifically included the leakage of identity verification documents, such as driver’s license images. While the company confirmed that credit card information was not stored and therefore not leaked, cybersecurity experts have warned of the risks associated with the theft of such sensitive data, noting it can be traded on the dark web for use in fraud and unauthorized logins.
