Tea, an app where women can swap information about men, went viral this week, riding a flood of attention on social media. It soon rocketed to the No. 1 slot in the Apple App Store’s lifestyle category, and then, promptly, the app was hacked.
A dating advice app that lets women anonymously review their dates and compare notes has surged in popularity.
A spokesperson for Tea confirmed the hack to ABC News Friday afternoon, noting it involved a database that stored around 13,000 images of selfies and photo identification submitted as users sought to verify their accounts, as well as nearly 60,000 images viewable for all app users.
