Cloud-'n'-comms biz Datrix has suffered a phishing attack that resulted in some customers' contact details being compromised – though the company reckons it contained the attack within 15 minutes.
The London-based firm sent an email to its customers earlier this week, seen by El Reg, confirming it had been "the target of a sophisticated cyber security attack, designed to defraud the company and appropriate company funds".
Company chairman Rob Wirszycz told us of the attackers: "They're incredibly clever, these guys."
He explained that someone within the company had been thumbing through emails on their mobile phone and accidentally tapped a link sent from a compromised supplier of Datrix's.
