Hacked Twitter data includes phone numbers, personal emails for celebrities, prominent politicians

November 30, 2022

More than 5.4 million user records from Twitter have been published online, exposing everything from private phone numbers to email addresses. The Daily Dot was able to confirm the presence of both private emails and phone numbers in the data breach. Aside from the 5.4 million user records, private data on more than 1.4 million suspended Twitter accounts has also been shared privately online. It also appears that the 5.4 million user records had been briefly offered online for free in September as well. “I have just received evidence of a massive Twitter data breach affecting millions of Twitter accounts in EU and US,” Loder wrote.
