A 19-year-old Sydney man has been charged after allegedly using information obtained during last month's Optus data breach to blackmail people.

It is alleged the man threatened 93 customers via text messages, saying he would use their details to commit financial crimes unless they paid $2,000.

All the pictures and the video have the faces blurred out.
He could be Asian?

A Sydney man has been charged over an alleged blackmail scam where he allegedly used details obtained from the Optus data breach.

On Thursday police arrested a 19-year-old man at a Rockdale property with a mobile phone allegedly linked to the text messages seized.

He has been charged with using a telecommunication network with the intent to commit a serious offence and dealing with identification information, offences that carry a maximum penalty of 10 and 7 years imprisonment respectively.

Police will allege text messages were sent to 93 Optus customers who had their data exposed in the Optus hack.

It is understood none of the individuals who received the text messages transferred money to the nominated account.
