2. My info stolen - HKID (how did CX have that...) phone number email - may not be enough to create new card accounts/identity documents for identity theft but coupled with pretty lax security at other HK companies, someone may get my other non-public info like bank balance or card balance. Other than that, and the fact my phone and email may be spammed, I really can't think of any objective consequences of the breach.
1) Do you trust what they tell you tho? Especially when you say they don't know your HKID.
2) Assuming your name was taken too, its not hard to make some half genuine ID for some can't be bothered company to approve their use.
3) Remember how some people got their alipay account breached?

Is anyone doing the class action?
