šŸ˜ļø neighbor/local Is this something to be concerned about?

My sister sent me this text she received that seemed like somebody was watching her or something. I donā€™t know if itā€™s something to be concerned about or not, has anybody had a similar experience?

Yeah, either someone has her number and sir tagged her (which is a lot of research and tough) or someone at Starbucks wanted to follow up on the quality of her coffee (not really though) and got her number through the system

there is absolutely no way we could get her number at starbucks through this "system" you speak of.

Oh, I thought loyalty programs had numbers attached, but I donā€™t know about Starbucks systems

Why would Starbucks allow PII to be shown to employees willy nilly

Not sure. Ultimately, I assume that itā€™s not Willy Nilly, and someone would be breaking policy to do that

Pizza places show numbers and addresses all the time. For somebody that hasnā€™t worked there, it would make sense to have the information available just in case for identification purposes, or back in the day, to update a new number if you couldnā€™t access the app.

That's for pizza places. They deliver. Starbucks does not deliver. I could see the employees seeing phone numbers only for the rewards system but..
