Although Toyota does not believe data was accessed by an unauthorized party, it is still recommended that those customers remain vigilant for the time being. Since email addresses were included with other exposed data, affected individuals are more vulnerable to scams and phishing attempts. If emails from unknown senders are received, they should not be interacted with. Unusual emails, emails involving payments, or emails involving sign-in links to high value accounts from trusted counterparties should be scrutinized carefully, and direct, independent contact should be made with the trusted counterparty to validate the legitimacy of the communication.
