I have just been alerted by a data monitoring service I subscribe to that my email address, username and hashed + salted password has been found on an ID theft forum (no other info provided unfortunately). I have only used this username on leefish.nl so the breach must have come from here. I just wanted to make staff aware of this so they can encourage people to change their passwords.

Had a similar notification, not surprised & very expected since the security on this website is intentionally non-existent. I'm more shocked it didn't happen sooner, and I'm somewhat doubtful that any staff is going to really look into it. This site is full of security holes & pretty sure it has been for a while.

You only need to register here to comment, so you could just delete your account. The password used here shouldn't even remotely match something used for anything important. And tbh, a different email address should also be used for important stuff. There isn't even anything in profiles here that could be used to identify you.
