533 million Facebook users’ data posted to hacker website

Details from 533 million Facebook users have been found available on a website for hackers. The information appears to be several years old, but it is another example of the vast amount of information collected by Facebook and other social media sites, and the limits to how secure that information is.

  • The personal data of over 500 million Facebook users has been posted online in a low-level hacking forum.
  • The data includes phone numbers, full names, location, email address, and biographical information.
  • Security researchers warn that the data could be used by hackers to impersonate people and commit fraud.
