King Jouet

ModerateReportedRetail

On 20 October 2026, a hacker claimed to have released for free a file presented as a King Jouet customer database. According to FrenchBreaches' analysis, the file holds 195,714 records with names, email addresses, phone numbers, postal codes, cities, countries and customer identifiers. The records mostly relate to France, followed by Switzerland, Belgium and Luxembourg. The retailer has not confirmed this release, and no link to the February 2025 cyberattack has been established; the file reportedly contains no passwords, bank details or purchase histories.

These contact details allow a malicious third party to target the people concerned with fraudulent emails or text messages impersonating the retailer.

Exposed data

  • Full name
  • Email address
  • Phone number
  • Customer ID
  • Other personal data

You are only affected if you had an account or an order with this organisation.

What you can do

  • Expect phishing attempts quoting your name and this company. A message that knows your details is not legitimate for that reason.
  • You can ask the organisation exactly what was exposed about you (right of access), and complain to the DPA if no answer comes within a month.
