According to the statement of Privacy Affairs, a hacker has sold the information of 1.5 billion Facebook users on underground forums. The hacker says that all the records he sells include an email address and phone, and he claims he hacked and stole this data from Facebook this year. It also asks potential customers who want to see the data before purchasing it to check by sending a sample dataset of 100 users. Although users are skeptical of him, it goes without saying that he will share his success stories on the forum once he makes the sale.
The stolen data includes email addresses, names, user IDs, location, gender, phone number and city information. Fortunately, the passwords were not stolen. Nevertheless, this development is important in terms of showing Facebook users how much their personal information is in danger at any moment. Privacy Affairs, which followed the developments, also announced that a user saw the data and said that all the data is real.
This news, which came to the agenda at the same time as the big blackout the other day, does not look good for Facebook, which is already having a hard time. Although the hacker did not reveal when he stole the information, it is clear that there is a big problem. . .
