This might belong better in the IT section and is based on a Tech News report, but as it doesn't deal directly with such things I've put it here.
 

Thailand's second largest Telecoms company has leaked the ID details of many thousands of its customers. It was discovered by a blogger in Norway, who informed the company. First, the company took a month to respond, and then in true (pun) Thai fashion blamed the blogger for accessing data he had no right to. In Thailand it is always, always, always someone else's fault.

 

Part of the Reuters report:
“There was no security at all protecting the files. Simply, if you found the URL, you could download all their customers scanned details,” Merrigan wrote in his blog.

True said the leak was fixed on April 12.

Seubsakol Sakolsatayadorn, Ascend Commerce’s managing director, said the data was private and that customers’ information was hacked by Merrigan.

“In this case the expert did not have the right to access this and he used special tools,” Seubsakol told reporters at a news conference.

 

Just unbelievable!

Found something very similar involving emails stored on a job recruitment database. Gotta be 200k of emails in the list. All Thai by looks if it.
