During the weekend of May 1, "the information of self-employed workers [...] was posted on the online account of 7400 self-employed workers", alerted the organization.


It is a “

computer error

” which Urssaf would have done well without.

During the long weekend of May 1, several thousand self-employed workers received personal data from other individuals, even though it did not concern them.

Bank details, identity, 2022 tax returns, deadlines or even address: the receipt of this information has given rise to numerous complaint and alert messages on social networks.

The information of self-employed workers who filed their tax return before

April 27 was posted on the online account of 7,400

self-employed workers

,” Urssaf told our colleagues from Le Monde.

And, of these, 1,650 "

really had access to the information

", added the organization.

Following an initial internal survey, Urssaf indicated that “

10,640 users were impacted by the transmission of their personal data

”.

You are potentially concerned if you filed your tax return before

April 27.

You will then soon receive a message from Urssaf detailing your situation and guiding you on what to do.

If you do not receive a message from Urssaf, you are not affected by this incident

, ”wrote the organization in a press release.

In addition, the incident was reported to the National Commission for Computing and Liberties (CNIL), in accordance with the procedure.

The collector invites those potentially affected to be extremely vigilant: their personal data, including their bank details, having been accessible, unwanted transfers or purchases may have taken place.
