‘Russia’s Facebook’ was hacked and 100 million users’ details are up for sale

Popular Russian social network VKontakte has been hacked, and 100 million customers’ account details are up for sale.

The hack of the site, which is sometimes referred to as “Russia’s Facebook,” was first reported by hack-tracking site LeakedSource.

The data taken includes email addresses, names, phone numbers, locations, and unencrypted passwords. It is now being sold online for one bitcoin — around $584, or £404. The sale is new, although the hack apparently happened some time ago — in 2012 or 2013, the hacker selling the data told ZDNet.
