A hacker sells 100.544.934 accounts for allegedly stolen by VK.com, a Russian social network. This is the same hacker that sold data from MySpace, LinkedIn, Tumblr, and Fling.com.
The Peace hacker (or Peace_of_mind) asks for 1 Bitcoin (about 570 dollars) for all data available for sale on the Real Deal online market on the Dark Web.
According to company experts, the data contains information such as email addresses, name, surname, position information, phone numbers, sometimes a secondary email, and in all cases a simple text password!
However, no one knows when VK.com was violated, but if VK.com continues to store passwords in plain text even today, it should do something immediately.
Below is an analysis of leaked data, with a list of top 25 passwords, 25 top email domains, and a Peace screenshot of VK.com.
