DoorDash says it was the victim of a cybersecurity incident that exposed information belonging to customers, drivers and merchants.

The company said the breach began after a DoorDash employee was targeted in a “social engineering scam.”

"The response team identified the incident, shut down the unauthorized party’s access, started an investigation, and referred the matter to law enforcement," DoorDash said in a statement.
