A few days ago, one of the users of a popular hacking forum posted a database of 1 million LinkedIn users as proof of the lot's authenticity. The source said that the complete database includes various information, including the names of users, their mailbox addresses, phone numbers, home addresses, geolocation data, names on social networks and links to personal pages, etc.

The forum user who published part of the database claims that in total he has information on 700 million LinkedIn users. With about 756 million people currently registered on the social network, the leak potentially affects 92% of the platform's users. The seller claims that the database is formed from data collected using hole in the LinkedIn API to collect information uploaded by users.

All is as usual.
