Twitter apologized to its business clients for a data breach, which included their email Ids, phone numbers, the last four digits of their credit card numbers. A Twitter spokesperson confirmed this to TechCrunch and also said in his statement, "The billing information of clients might have stored in the browser's cache." According to BBC, Twitter warned its business clients and advertisers about the data breach over mail. This is not the first time for Twitter. Recently, Twitter in December '19 disclosed that users' information had compromised worldwide, including India, by a bad actor.
