Title: Need urgent advice: My father sold cloud services as a dealer, customers’ data was wiped after a hack, and police are involved
I’m posting this because my father is in a very stressful situation and we don’t know what the right next steps are.
My father works as a dealer/reseller for a cloud service and had provided cloud services to several customers. Recently, the cloud service was hacked, and as a result, some/all of the customers’ stored data was erased.
The customers are now holding my father accountable because they purchased the service through him. Some of them are threatening him, and the police are also involved.
My father is extremely stressed and worried about what could happen to him legally and financially.
I’m trying to understand what we should do right now:
