hemmelig.com Data Breach

What happened

In December 2011, Norway's largest online sex shop hemmelig.com was hacked by a collective calling themselves "Team Appunity". The attack exposed over 28,000 usernames and email addresses along with nicknames, gender, year of birth and unsalted MD5 password hashes.

Exposed data

Recommended actions

• Change your hemmelig.com 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 hemmelig.com — attackers weaponise breach data quickly.
• Check whether your email address appears in this breach on haveibeenpwned.com.
