What hackers stole from Cell C

Files posted on the dark web site of the hacking group RansomHouse suggest that the attackers stole highly sensitive data from Cell C.

Cell C disclosed last week that it was the victim of a cyberattack that had exposed the data of a limited number of people.
 
Yeah already seen the sample data they stole, pretty much CDR's and some IDs etc and contracts with business clients. Not the full stack however, but their timeout is about to hit which is also why i think Cell-C released the media statement a few weeks ago.

We track darkweb activity, and one of the forums had the leaked samples, but i believe its also available on the main Ransomhouse page too.

I cant even find their main page. TOR for access?
 
So how exactly do we check ?
Got a generic email from Cell C acknowledging, but that's about it...no details.
 
So, what do people do now? Change names, surname, identity numbers of all family members, buy a new house and move. Buy a new cellphone. Buy new cars. Get a new job. Get a new SARS reference for tax. Get new marriage certificates issues. Or, do we simply move on with life?
