Tea, dating app and Women-only
Digest more
A previously disclosed hack affecting Tea, a women-only dating advice app, was more extensive than previously thought, the company said Monday. Tea's investigation of the incident found that app users' direct messages had been breached, along with some of their photos.
Hackers have breached the Tea app, which recently went viral as a place for women to safely talk about men, and tens of thousands of women’s selfies and photo IDs have now seemingly been leaked online.
A spokesperson for Tea confirmed the hack to ABC News Friday afternoon, noting it involved a database that stored around 13,000 images of selfies and photo identification submitted as users sought to verify their accounts, as well as nearly 60,000 images viewable for all app users.
