    15M Trello accounts have been leaked

    That title is very misleading. 15M Trello accounts were found to be compromised because of other, previous leaks, but no leak related to Trello occurred.

      Get something like splunk to do it. I’m wondering what the rules for this might look like, especially if this was e.g. distributed scraping.

        With a site that active, they really need something that can’t identify strange traffic patterns. Hell, maybe they do but no one cared to do anything. Maybe no one listens to IT… that never happens /s

      How about “leaked”? I chose “breached” because title of mail was “You’re one of 15,111,945 people pwned in the Trello data breach”

        I exclusively use alias emails and have found the down side. If you use an alias email for each site you visit (let’s say an online shop that is ran by Shopify) there is an extremely high chance your purchase will be flagged (fuck you Shopify) as a fraudulent account. I am constantly being flagged on sites with Shopify back ends for fraud. It really sucks when your hoppy (FPV Drones) is mainly ran by Shopify sites.

        P.S. There is no one to help resolve these issues with Shopify as they don’t have a customer support unless you’re a customer and the store owners are either dumb on how to help or just plain lazy.

          I’ve just gone over 200 aliases and none of mine are blocked. Are you using a custom domain?

          I found a .com domain helps with this. You can find some ugly ones for cheap

      I agree that data security is important, even if it is only email addresses, where many are probably findable in the web anyway. Maybe, the link with the username has some value, but I’d bet only little. In my opinion, harsh penalties are more needed in privacy invasive (in my opinion malware) like google, meta, Amazon etc. are spreading.

        The problem is that this data can be combined with other data. An email address by itself isn’t particularly important but when it’s matched up with names, physical addresses, DoB, SSN, other PII and the network of other services with matching data it becomes very serious.

        It’s never just this breach, it’s every other breach as well. Every breach makes every preceeding breach more effective and more valuable.

          Of course, but where are names, physical addresses, DoB, SSN, etc in this dataset? It’s just mail and username

      Yes but this wasn’t a data breach. This was a data stuffing incident, meaning they took someone else’s data dump and tried their email and credentials here.

      • never use the same username and password in two or more places
      • always use MFA, a hard token if you can like a yubikey

        Do you own a Yubikey?

        Have you ever succeeded in getting it to work with anything??

        It didn’t work with gmail, or any other online account I had.

        An absolute waste of $$.

    This should be a locally installed program with a licensing uab dongle or electronic license.

    So much company secrets in there…

    Hey OP, I’m doing some research. You mind sharing that link in the description of your screenshot?

      Hello spam, and also confirmation that your email address and username is valid and can be used to try to log in elsewhere.

    I just got this email from Google while reading this. A funny coincidence.
