Embattled credit-reporting company Equifax has done some data crunching and discovered another 2.4 million people that had their information slurped by hackers.
The biz, which was subject to one of the biggest data breaches in US history last May, has already had to revise up the number of affected individuals.
The total stood at 145 million in the US and hundreds of thousands in the UK and Canada – but it's now found a few more people that previously escaped its "forensic" testings.
