    Dear Guest,

    We are writing to notify you of an issue that involves your personal information. On July 10, 2019, we learned that an unauthorized party had accessed and downloaded certain MGM Resorts guest data from an external cloud server a few days earlier. The affected information may have included names, contact information (such as postal addresses, email addresses, and phone numbers), and dates of birth. The specific data affected differed for each impacted individual.

    Promptly after learning of the issue, we took steps to enhance our security measures such as by further strengthening our monitoring capabilities to detect unauthorized system activity. We engaged a leading third-party data security expert to assist with our investigation of the incident and coordinated with law enforcement authorities.

    We recently identified that your information was affected by this issue. We take our obligation to safeguard personal information very seriously and are alerting you so you can take steps to help protect against the risk of misuse of your information. We are providing you with credit monitoring services for one year at no cost to you, and encourage you to follow the instructions below to enroll in these services.

    We hope this information is useful to you. If you have any questions regarding this issue, please contact 1 (888) 261-9692 from 9:00 am - 5:00 pm, Eastern Time. We regret any inconvenience this may cause you.

    Sincerely,


    MGM Resorts International

    MGM (and equally dumb Bet365) are picked off daily by sharps. They are routinely the slowest and dumbest.

    Personally, I refuse to do business with the scumbags and it costs me EV every single day. Other less principled blokes rake.

    MGM is simply inept

    Whopping $75 for your SSN getting exposed.

    Exciting!

    If you ever cashed in an MGM properties poker tournament, your SSN was likely breached in this hack.
