AbuseWith.Us Data Breach

What happened

In 2016, the site dedicated to helping people hack email and online gaming accounts known as Abusewith.us suffered multiple data breaches. The site allegedly had an administrator in common with the nefarious LeakedSource site, both of which have since been shut down. The exposed data included more than 1.3 million unique email addresses, often accompanied by usernames, IP addresses and plain text or hashed passwords retrieved from various sources and intended to be used to compromise the victims' accounts.

Exposed data

Recommended actions

• Change your AbuseWith.Us password immediately, and update it anywhere you reused the same password.
• Enable two-factor authentication on the affected account and on your critical services (email, banking).
• Watch for targeted phishing emails referencing AbuseWith.Us — attackers weaponise breach data quickly.
• Check whether your email address appears in this breach on haveibeenpwned.com.
