A well-known hacker leaked details from 2,28 this week millions users who are registered with MeetMindful.com, a dating website founded in 2014.
Dating site data shared for download free on a publicly accessible forum known for trading hacked databases.
The leaked data, a 1,2 GB file, appears to be a dump of the site database.
The contents of this file contain a large amount of information provided by users when creating a profile on the MeetMindful site.
Some of the most sensitive data in the file include:
Real names
Email addresses
City, state and postal code details
Body description
Dating preferences
Marital status
Dates of birth
Latitude and longitude
IP addresses
Bcrypt-hashed account passwords
Facebook user IDs
Facebook authentication badges
The messages exchanged by the users do not exist in the leaked file.
Although not all leaked accounts are included, the data provided can be used to identify the true identities of the site users.
Meanwhile, the forum thread where MeetMindful data was leaked has been viewed more than 1.500 times and has probably been downloaded by too many users.
The data is still available for download on the public hosting site files where they originally went up.
The leak of this highly sensitive data represents a huge problem for users of the website and MeetMindful shall notify its users.
