A hacker claiming to have a database of 400 million Twitter users' info is reportedly trying to sell it on the black market.

400 million Twitter users’ data containing private emails and linked phone numbers have reportedly been up for sale on the black market.

Cybercrime intelligence firm Hudson Rock highlighted a “credible threat” via Twitter on Dec. 24 in which someone is supposedly selling a private database containing contact information of 400 million Twitter user accounts. “The private database contains devastating amounts of information including emails and phone numbers of high profile users such as AOC, Kevin O'Leary, Vitalik Buterin & more,” Hudson Rock stated, before adding that:

“In the post, the threat actor claims the data was obtained in early 2022 due to a vulnerability in Twitter, as well as attempting to extort Elon MuskHudson Rock said that while it has not been able to fully verify the hacker’s claims given the number of accounts, it said that an “independent verification of the data itself appears to be legitimate.

The hacker is one of twitter fired employees :)

Elon... Where? Also the half of that database are bots XD

Picture of the 'hacker'

Avoiding data breaches is almost impossible Twitter should create a decentralized Web3 platform based on blockchain technology to prevent the theft of our data. A decentralized platform does not store the data in a centralized place, on the contrary, it would make it more secure

I don't know if it's a good idea to mess with elonmusk Mr. Hacker 🤐

So your saying I might get 3 more telemarketers calling me a week on top of the 7 I'm already receiving

Well, I hope people know that they shouldn't share their info even in the DMs, like card numbers, seed phrases and etc.

10% people 90% bots

Should never register any info besides email address on any social platform and that address should only be created for such purposes.

I wonder if he's bluffing or not, I think it's true

What did u expect, if u had Indian staff that were “selling” blue verification ✔️ ticks, this would be expected!!
