'failing to get the retailer to act even 12 months'

A wider issue here is how often contact-emails listed on corporate or brand websites is just zombie info, with emails that will go unanswered forever. When you query this by phoning them up, you often get abruptly yet proudly & smugly told: 'oh we only monitor Twitter and Facebook channels now'.

Great, slurp city! So I just quietly go away as a customer in 'silent-failure'. However, if I was a CEO looking out for my bonus, I'd be terrified of this. What??? Researchers unable to get through to WARN anyone that a gaping hole exists in our security... But hey no worries, until a Bot finds it! Wake the f*ck up CEO's, #Hackers# and #GDPR# are all coming for your bonuses!!!
