It was the Dutch channel RTL Nieuws that reported this morning that Mediamarkt had become the victim of a major cyber attack. RTL Nieuws was able to view internal e-mails from Mediamarkt to employees. According to the Dutch channel, collection and returns are no longer possible, but the Belgian spokesperson does not want to confirm this. “We try to help customers as best we can,” said De Saedeleer.

RTL Nieuws says that internal communication shows that the computers in the stores can no longer be used. Internet cables should also be removed from the cash registers. Sources of RTL Nieuws speak of a ransomware attack. But Mediamarkt can’t say anything about this at the moment either. “We cannot give any details yet, we are investigating further,” said the spokesperson.
