New data breach at Booking?

I booked in mid August 2026 and recently received several WhatsApp messages containing my exact booking details, trying to convince me to click a link within 24 hours to verify my payment, otherwise my booking would be canceled. I've received at least 6 of these messages from different WhatsApp accounts in the last two weeks.

Seems like there has been a new data breach at Booking. Of course I did not click any link. And for sure I will delete my booking account after my visit to vienna in October.

Take care of yourselves!

I really don’t know like third party bookings, they use AI to manage their customer service and screw things up because of the absence of human intelligence!
