LulzSec releases 62,000 email, password combos

haveaniceday · 16 Jun 2011 at 19:19

LulzSec has released 62,000 email/password combinations today, although it is unclear where the data was stolen from.
Because many users keep the same combinations for multiple sites, some users have already reported that their Gmail, Facebook, Twitter and other accounts have all been hacked.

If you are scared you are part of the release, check here to see if your data was stolen: Find Out if Your Passwords Were Leaked by LulzSec http://gizmodo.com/5812545/find-out-if-your-passwords-were-leaked-by-lulzsec-right-here

The point of the release is to cause "chaos" and the plan seems to be working, at least for now.

Outside of the release, LulzSec has also started a war with 4Chan and Anonymous, following 4Chan's move to DDoS anything related to Lulz after LulzSec DDoS'd games like EVE Online and Minecraft. On its Twitter page, LulzSec has been giving tips on how to annoy 4Chan users:

Everybody visit this cool and edgy imageboard, they love new members!Ask them how to triforce and how to become legion.

Anonymous says they have "accepted the challenge" brought by LulzSec

After reading reddit, apparently this list of accounts has been released before, Lulzsec just re-released it.

All clear. **** you, LulzSec.

And don't worry, we're not storing any text you enter in the search box.

But can we believe you.

Lulzsec vs Anon.

Clash of the socially inept.

It appears to be a dump list from phishing emails, etc. rather than from a website being hacked into.

Vita · 16 Jun 2011 at 19:27

Just to add, I'm all clear also. There really is some lack in security and common sense these days on the interwebs.

I would pay good money to see them fight in real life. It would be like something from Napoleon Dynamite.

I don't get all this moronic hacking lark, really. Idiots.

FFS It's been removed. Now I can't check if I was on there

Anyone got the file willing to rehost?

A bunch of pathetic infantile basement dwellers having an online slap fight with another bunch of pathetic infantile basement dwellers.

Yay, why should I care?

Yeh apparently, it's had wrong/badly formatted emails removed though so it's about 45k.

TheCenturion · 16 Jun 2011 at 19:49

Clever of facebook, they've gotten hold of the list and reset the passwords for any emails that match up with their database.

Hmmm, thanks for posting it. I've looked through, can't find my email or any of my mate's emails on there.
