Actress Eva Longoria, too, revealed on "Access Hollywood" today that she's been directly contacted by Apple employees who were able to access her personal information from company records.
"I've had a lot of problems with people breaking into my email, my Mac email," Longoria told host Billy Bush. "Not hacked - just people get it from the stores, and I had a big problem with that."
Longoria says Apple employees have contacted her after store visits, saying, "'I made a dress, and I want to send it to you. I work at the Apple Store here in San Antonio.' And I'm like… What? Did someone give out my email? Or my phone? 'I saw your phone number from your profile, I just wanted to call and say hi, I'm a fan.'"
"There are a lot of privacy issues," she added.
Apple - which claims in its privacy policy that "we communicate our privacy and security guidelines to Apple employees and strictly enforce privacy safeguards within the company" - did not respond to the show's request for comment.
