I'm sure a lot of you have heard about the breach of Facebook and the 500+ million accounts' information that was stolen back in 2019. Facebook did fix the cause of the intrusion, and with most of us, we just let it all slide as another lesson learned.
Well, a couple weeks ago, guess what? All that information appeared for sale/free on the Darkweb. By information I mean, Facebook profiles, names, addresses, emails, and phone numbers. If you have that type of info on Facebook at the time of the breach, you may have been one of the unlucky ones.
A few months back, I also wrote an article about a website called "Have I been pwned" an excellent site to check if your email(s) have been stolen from any breaches. It also provides a great list of recent breaches and what info was stolen etc. An excellent resource I must say!
As of a week or so ago, they have also added the feature of checking not just your email, but now your phone number! So you can see if you number has been stolen as well.
I have used this site for years now, and have had excellent results! If you are concerned at all about if your info is out there, CHECK this site out! I highly recommend it! They don't collect or keep any data that you put on the site, and is completely malware free! Any questions, feel free to comment below!
(Don't forget to click my sponsors! it all helps to pay for the site and any upgrades! Yes, even the Amazon links! Thanks!)
