What was exposed, and what does it mean for me?

  • Your email addressemail addresses

    Expect messages that look like they come from this service or another one you use, written to get you to click a link or sign in on a fake page.

  • Other detailsusernames

    On their own these carry less risk, but they make a scam message sound more personal.

What should I do now?

In this order, for what this data scrape exposed.

1. Expect phishing

  • Be wary of messages that urge you to act fast, ask for personal details, or link to an address that is slightly off.
  • If a message might be genuine, do not use its links or phone numbers. Go to the site by typing its address yourself.
