Irish customers of Asos received a threatening message through the company’s mobile app, alerting them that the platform had been hacked. The notification read “ASOS HACKED,” prompting concern among users. The message appeared without prior warning, leaving users uncertain about the authenticity of the alert.
The incident occurred on a single day, with multiple users reporting the same notification. No further details were provided about the nature of the hack or the source of the message. Asos has not yet issued a public statement confirming the breach or advising users on next steps.
This is not the first time Asos has faced cybersecurity issues. In 2022, the company was involved in a data breach affecting millions of users.

Users are advised to remain cautious and verify any suspicious messages through official channels.
