Ticketmaster has engaged the ACSC[1]. I doubt its a rumour.

Whether or not it’s a rumour based on speculation has nothing to do with it. It either is or it isn’t.
There is no confirmation that it isn’t.

Just to provide receipts:
Home Affairs Department confirms cyber incident impacting Ticketmaster customers (https://www.abc.net.au/news/2024-05-29/ticketmaster-hack-all...) - May 29th
> The Department of Home Affairs said it is aware of a cyber incident impacting Ticketmaster customers in response to claims it is part of a data leak expected to impact millions of customers globally.
How exactly "being aware" counts as "confirmation" in this case?
Any other article (outside of those who used ABC Aus as a source) on this matter have specifically used words like "allegedly", "purported", etc.
That's the only argument I am making.
It clearly says:
A spokesperson from the Department of Home Affairs told the ABC it is "Working with Ticketmaster to understand the incident".
Which is more than they are aware of a rumour
Tickettek is Australia's largest ticketing company and a competitor to Ticketmaster
