Alert: Attack on Westpac's PayID

Today I read about an attack on Westpac's PayID.

https://www.smh.com.au/business/banking-and-finance/australians-private-details-exposed-in-attack-on-westpac-s-payid-20190603-p51u2u.html

At this stage I don't understand the implications of the attack, but it does appear that people using PayID can have their name determined. How this information can be used for potential fraud I don't know.

What I felt was important, was at this stage I left other people know about the attack. I hope the information helps.
