  "account": "On July 30th, 2026, Pokémon Center UK suffered a cyberattack that disrupted its operations and potentially exposed customer data. The company's UK-based order fulfillment provider, CEVA Logistics, fell victim to the attack, causing delays in processing and shipping orders for customers in the UK and Germany. Though no user accounts or payment information were compromised, around a dozen organizations confirmed to be affected, including Pokémon Center itself. The breach exposed customers' full names, mailing addresses, phone numbers, email addresses, and order details. The company emailed its customers informing them to cancel recent orders due to the unforeseen fulfilment issue. Pokémon Center's website also displayed a notification stating that they were experiencing delays affecting some orders for their UK customers. They expressed apologies for the inconvenience and requested patience while they resolved the situation.",
  "summary": "Another victim of the CEVA Logistics supply chain attack steps forward as orders get halted and postponed.",
