The app, which is designed to protect women from bad dates, has now exposed their identities following a major hack
An app called “Tea” that lets women share “red flags” or feedback about men they have dated has confirmed that hackers have accessed some 72,000 images including user IDs.
A preliminary investigation indicated hackers had accessed early on Friday a “legacy” storage system holding images uploaded by users who signed up before February of last year, a Tea spokeswoman said.
Stolen pictures included some 13,000 selfies or images featuring photo identification submitted to verify Tea accounts, according to the spokeswoman.
