A hacker that goes by the title of Darwinare claims to have breached Amazon Uk (amazon.co. united kingdom ).
To demonstrate the fact that he hacked the website, the hacker published the facts of over 600 consumers, such as names, usernames, passwords (some of which in clear text), e mail addresses, physical addresses, and registration dates.
&ldquoAmazon, I have no private grudge against you. I just located a opening and exploited it. So don't stress, other folks will get the identical to,&rdquo the hacker wrote on Twitter.
The information leak appears to be respectable since I haven&rsquot discovered the identical data sets anyplace else online and I can confirm that at least some of the username / password combinations are valid.
Nonetheless, the information doesn&rsquot necessarily have to come from amazon.co. uk. The account information could have been compromised by a 3rd party site, comparable to the incident which concerned Twitter accounts earlier this week.
I&rsquove sent an e mail to Amazon Uk and hopefully they can clarify the scenario. The website will be updated as soon as they react.
