Last I heard, a guestimate of 10,028 accounts were listed between user names [email protected] and [email protected], and that was taken from a shortlist posted to pastebin.com.
I also heard that there is a ~30,000 list of Yahoo and AOL usernames and passwords. And another ~20,000 of Hotmail, Yahoo, AOL, Google and other service providers accounts. Google also claims to have found yet another list. Has anyone heard anything else? -- ME2 On Tue, Oct 6, 2009 at 12:16 PM, Ben Scott <[email protected]> wrote: > On Tue, Oct 6, 2009 at 11:22 AM, Carl Houseman <[email protected]> > wrote: > > It would seem this only affects accounts of those who've fallen victim to > a > > phishing scheme. > > So, in other words, if you've given someone else your password, they > probabbly have it? > > How is it this is breaking for all those accounts, all at once, on > multiple services?
