What happened
In June 2026, a party claiming to have access to data from Goose Creek Candle Company sent emails to a number of the company's customers, claiming the company had a security vulnerability and suffered a data breach. The data was subsequently sent to Have I Been Pwned and contained 6.6M unique email addresses along with names, phone numbers, physical addresses, order IDs and total spent. The data appears to have been obtained from the company's Shopify instance. Goose Creek is aware of the reports but was unable to provide Have I Been Pwned with any further information at the time of publication.

What to do right now
- Be alert for smishing and SIM-swap attempts. Treat unexpected texts and "carrier" calls with suspicion; add a PIN/port-freeze with your mobile carrier.
- Watch for targeted phishing mail. A leaked home address makes postal and doorstep scams more convincing.
- Expect convincing phishing emails. Attackers use breached details to write personalized emails. Be suspicious of any message referencing this service.
- Check your other accounts on Have I Been Pwned. Your email address may appear in other breaches you don't know about yet.
- Monitor the apps you use going forward. Clearly watches the breach record for the companies behind your apps and alerts you the moment one appears.
