Can't be fake then. Must belong to someone.

Haha, naive people put their email here and get subject to spam

It's just a mail collection service. They have no more knowledge of if your mail got hacked then you do.

That's incorrect. Troy Hunt runs Have I Been Pwned? and as a well known security researcher and Microsoft fellow I am sure he's not harvesting email addresses.

It's ill informed crap like you just wrote that makes the Internet a more dangerous place, because when security specialists develop tools to protect you all you can do is try to tear them down.

I know he doesn't, emails are compared to the database and then forgotten.

It's externally audited and trusted by AusCERT.

I can't believe the number of dumb fucks in this thread who have no idea what they're talking about.

Edit: you can voluntarily sign up to be notified of breaches, but to suggest that he harvests emails entered into Have I Been Pwned is ridiculous when you consider the significant scrutiny the service receives.

You read his TOS they store the emails of subscribers.

Nowhere in his TOS does he say no third parties can pay him to send out promotional emails on their behalf.

Also, he uses Sendgrid to send out emails

Sendgrid TOS states that third parties are allowed access to the data, it's under "service data" in their TOS.

What part of respected security researcher do you not understand?

When it comes to technology most of you GFY folk are fucking peasants. No wonder mainstream eclipsed adult, it's because most people left in adult are luddites, clinging on to old versions of PHP and Wordpress, using insecure outdated scripts and probably re-using passwords on a multitude of websites.

You have no idea what K-Anonymity is, or how it's used to cross reference compromised passwords without passing on the password itself, you have no idea what AusCERT is, you probably don't even know how numerous services use the HIBP datasets to protect you on a daily basis.

I can't deal with this level of stupid that most people here exhibit daily.

Also notice in his TOS when you opt of of email notifications, he doesn't delete your email, he keeps it in his database... how convenient.

"HIBP provides an opt-out feature that removes the email address from public visibility. It does this by flagging the record as being opted-out rather than permanently deleting it..."

I'm not saying he's a bad guy or nefarious in any way. Just the facts.

Facebook famously said they don't give your data to third parties, they just let them access their database of your info.

Because you're so quick jump to dumb conclusions.

The section of the TOS you referenced refers to dump data not sign up notification data.

You can opt your email out of the HIBP database and then it won't return Pwned on a search, but it remains in the database because it's a fundamental part of how the database works. Also email addresses change hands, eg: [email protected] which is why they're flagged and not removed from HIBP dump data.

Furthermore the dump data has already been made public on pastebins and other such services by hackers, deleting an email from the HIBP database doesn't magically make the email address disappear from the dumps out there on the web.

It's actually quite correct. What is ill informed is you not understanding anything about everything. I work on security far more then you have even thought about and know far more about these things then you do, but that is even besides the point, nether i can prove it to you, nor do i care to prove it to you. The availability he would need to have to "check" if your email is hacked from all the databases that he claims to check against would make his site the prime target for every email theif on the planet. His database would also be humangous and preserve a constant security threat from those same companies the databases were stolen. Yea, im sure they gave their consent into something like this. Don't be as stupid as you sound.

However, what i do know, and can prove, is that i put a bullshit made up email that came back as "breached". And no, no one else has tried that one since i would sooner win the lottery then for that to happen.
What i did then was try an email i do own that i didnt register anywhere, and it also came back as "breached" and it even lists the databases it is on, and it lists sites that i didn't visit EVER. It listed just some random sites that the guy presumes my ip uses.

So yea, it's a hoax to capture emails. But by all means, go and put all your mails in there.

Thank you.

He also has millions of invalid email addresses in the database.

Hackers who sold these dumps on the black market used to pad them out with made up addresses in the same way spam list sellers used to do 20 years ago.

If you make up an email address and it comes up as Pwned that's simply because the email address has been used in the way described above.

Troy Hunt is an acclaimed security researcher and has world wide respect in the Internet Security sphere. He's advised Governments, companies and even commissions of inquiry.

He makes big money from his well regarded courses, his directorships and his work for various organisations. It's laughable to suggest that he would risk all that by building his own spam database.

Anyone in this thread who has suggested he has nefarious intent obviously doesn't follow anyone of note with regard to security research.

good point , i have checked my e-mails on ihbp , half of them are pwned . i believe they test e-mail addresses with e-mail lookup service in background if they were previously registered with websites that known for breaches , they tell you pwned

haha . probably e-mail is just registered but not all accounts were effected in those hacks

,almost all disclosed hacked websites from 2015 sent notifications to reset passwords and i did change them ,what next rainbow tables

Originally posted by ladida

It tells you exactly which breach(es) the email address appears in with a background story of each breach and what details were compromised in that breach.

For all my email addresses all the breaches listed are services that I actually used that email address for. It is 100% accurate, not something random as it also includes smaller breaches for lesser known services that I used.

Basically all this tool does is match the email address you enter against all the breached databases and tells you if it appears in one or more of them and tells you which one(s).

Then they have an additional service where you can sign up for automatic warnings for new breaches, where when there is a new breach it matches the subscribers to the email addresses in that breach and emails you if it found your email address in it.

They also allow you to opt-out for breaches appearing when searching for your email address. So when someone searches for your email address it will return it was not pwned. This does not remove your email address from the databases, it just sets a flag that when that email address should return no results.

That's all there is to it. It's a very basic lookup tool and notification service that is made to help people be more secure. People thinking otherwise really have no idea what they are talking about. Do you think if there was any doubt about this all the big security research sites and major news publications would constantly link to the site.

**Bladewire** · 02-04-2019, 06:32 AM

Troy Hunt is Australian so you can't have a logical fact based discussion with AdultQueen about Troy Hunt storing, and not deleting, email addresses submitted to their notification service and processed through third party email service provider SendGrid.

AdultQueen licks Troy Hunt's asshole clean because he's a fellow Australian, he literally has a God complex for him.

The facts are, per the haveibeenpwned.com TOS and SendGrid's TOS emails submitted to the haveibeenpwned.com notification service are never deleted, even when you cancel the service, and data submitted is accessible to third parties via SendGrid, as stated in SendGrids TOS.

No big deal for anyone, very standard.

If you followed closely, but you don't, you'll know that in the real world I have actually disapproved of Troy Hunt and his relationship with Microsoft and I have also had a run in with Pluralsight over other issues.

You would also know, if you followed closely, about the work done on K-Anonimity, which is used to protect passwords used on 1Password and other services.

And if you followed really closely on security and privacy matters then you would clearly know of an issue I found and disclosed two years ago relating to a failing in the de-identification of Australian Census data.

Yes sure.

What it means is that the email address together with passwords and other identifying data has been disclosed in a breach. Some of these breaches are self disclosed by affected companies but usually they are disclosed by hacker database dumps being found by security researchers.

If your email appears in a breach then the breach will be listed. If you have not changed your password since the date of that breach then you should change it because until you change your password you are still at risk. Simply put, until you change your password on a service that has been breached then you are still compromised.

Does that help, happy to expand more if needed.

As I said, you're like that great big firecracker that you just can't wait to light and let off, except in your case the fuse just fizzes out and you're left looking at what could have been a spectacular firecracker that will now never go off.

It doesn't. It just namedrops with no relevance. To actually be certain it was breached it would have to list you what it found in the supposed breach. This way you could verify it. Ofcourse it doesnt display anything close to that, and relies on faith of his suckers to think it actually does what it does (ie - you), or possibly payed shills. It's why you're foaming on your mouth because you cant prove anything. Meanwhile, there's no explanation coming why
a) random fake emails turn out as "breached"
b) email used nowhere turns out as "breached" and on sites i never visited in my life.

Keep foaming tho.

No it doesnt.
a) The check would take WAY WAY longer then it's displayed on the site
b) He doesn't have database with that many emails 100%
c) He probably never even saw 50% of the supposed breached databases as if a company discloses it had a breach, it certainly will not send a list of all the users/emails that got breached to some charlatan running a website who's cock you like to put in your mouth way too many times to be considered healthy.

No it doesnt. It namedrops the supposed breach it had happened on, but you have 0 verification on that other then some random website telling you it did. You might as well believe in fairies and leprechauns and try to find one so it brings you luck in life. It's on par.
Do you have a plausible explanation as to why fake and non used emails appear "breached" and in sites that i didn't visit 1 time in my life, not even by accident? Just because i came and tested the site with IP that's not my own so it presumed i come from a certain country?

Yea im sure it does. There's this guy on tv that also guesses which card you imagined out of 10 random cards he shows you. Im pretty sure there's at least 100 people out of a million watching the show that he got it right. And there we have it, he has a 100 people saying he can read mind.

Basically, for this to happen he would have to have ALL of those emails in the breaches as well in his database. In reality, this is 100% not true as per reasons outlined above. Feel free to answer those questions.

I also get regular spam in email that has an "opt out" link as well. Just a feature to satisfy legislature so he can harvest emails better.

Do you think if there was any doubt about this all the big security research sites and major news publications would constantly link to the site.

It's just a spam harvesting machine to harvest more emails. There's really not much to it. Feel free to list all your emails there and deluding yourself it's not what it is and some magical being is hoovering over your safety.

You're so clueless I don't even know where to begin. Every concern you raised I addressed in this thread, maybe read what I have written and educate yourself.

Then read these articles:

The only reason I can see why people would dismiss services such as Have I Been Pwned is if they had something to gain from people not being conscious of their security. People such as Brian Krebs and Troy Hunt have long been hated by cyber criminals because they shine a light on cybercrime.

I guess you're either one of two things, a cybercriminal who hates these people that expose cybercrime to the general public or you are simply a stupid, technophobic, wannabe, simple GFY peasant. Which one you are I don't care, however I will continue to call out the fuckwits on this forum for the stupid luddites they are. Dude, you're up there as one of the dumbest peasants on this forum.

I tried 5 different made up email addresses and they all came back negative...the problem with putting in a fake email is that email accounts are sold by the 1000-s...they are generated by bots in the millions and along with the billions of people who use gmail,yahoo etc it is really hard to make a fake email address that nobody has used before...this might explain why ladida got sand in his vagina....

I put in like 2408rfdjw0s2 at gmail and all such queries produced shit...then I used my gaming gmail and it was actually compromised...my gaming gmail address is random numbers and letters also...

It's funny that his own email address was pwned. Some security expert lol.

**D Ghost** · 02-04-2019, 11:40 AM

Almost certainly many people's email addresses will be in some dump/paste somewhere. And that's ok if you frequently update your password every couple months But... the cool part is you can run through passwords you've used and see if any of your actual password have bene pwnd https://haveibeenpwned.com/Passwords

Not really. You have however addressed a lot of logical fallacies and name callings.

The logical fallacies continue.
Brian Krebs is actually someone that does good things and not harvest emails for spam. Please dont drag the guy's name through dirt by lumping him in with your spam cock assistant.

Yea, not only that, my made up email also got pwned. This guy's a marvel at it's best, hacking my brain. I bow to thee.

Brian Krebbs supports and recommends Troy Hunt's Have I Been Pnwed.

In facts, Brian Krebbs is probably the most respected Security journalist on the planet and has included Have I Been Pwned in his articles numerous times.

https://krebsonsecurity.com/tag/haveibeenpwned-com/

Would Brian Krebbs recommend the service if it wasn't the real deal?

As I said mate, you're the little village peasant.

Nowhere in that 1st article he endorses the website. He just mentions it. He even goes out and says

Code:

KrebsOnSecurity sought perspective on this discovery from Alex Holden, CTO of Hold Security

If he endorsed the site or thought highly of it, he'd ask the owner himself, but he didn't, because it's just a useless spam machine. I like how you don't even understand all the logical fallacies you're spewing throughout your posts.

Less foam will possibly make you think more clearly. The questions in this thread are yet to be answered in a logical and factual way.

You didn't read enough, I posted a link to every article tagged HaveIBeenPwnd by Brian Krebbs.

In an article about an ILLEGITIMATE hack checking database, Brian Krebbs wrote:

Sometime this weekend, Leakbase began redirecting visitors to haveibeenpwned.com, a legitimate breach alerting service run by security researcher Troy Hunt (Hunt’s site lets visitors check if their email address has shown up in any public database leaks, but it does not store corresponding account passwords).

If you think highly of Brian Krebbs then please explain why Brian Krebbs links to HaveIBeenPwned in articles?

Maybe you can also explain why Brian Krebbs appeared with Troy Hunt at a security conference early last year?

Mate, you've just Pwned yourself. Clueless useless peasant.

It doesn't. It just namedrops with no relevance. To actually be certain it was breached it would have to list you what it found in the supposed breach. This way you could verify it. Ofcourse it doesnt display anything close to that, and relies on faith of his suckers to think it actually does what it does (ie - you), or possibly payed shills. It's why you're foaming on your mouth because you cant prove anything. Meanwhile, there's no explanation coming why
a) random fake emails turn out as "breached"
b) email used nowhere turns out as "breached" and on sites i never visited in my life.

Keep foaming tho.

No it doesnt.
a) The check would take WAY WAY longer then it's displayed on the site
b) He doesn't have database with that many emails 100%
c) He probably never even saw 50% of the supposed breached databases as if a company discloses it had a breach, it certainly will not send a list of all the users/emails that got breached to some charlatan running a website who's cock you like to put in your mouth way too many times to be considered healthy.

Only it's not. It has you with his cock in your mouth, thats it.

Don't drown in that foam pls.

No it doesnt. It namedrops the supposed breach it had happened on, but you have 0 verification on that other then some random website telling you it did. You might as well believe in fairies and leprechauns and try to find one so it brings you luck in life. It's on par.
Do you have a plausible explanation as to why fake and non used emails appear "breached" and in sites that i didn't visit 1 time in my life, not even by accident? Just because i came and tested the site with IP that's not my own so it presumed i come from a certain country?

Yea im sure it does. There's this guy on tv that also guesses which card you imagined out of 10 random cards he shows you. Im pretty sure there's at least 100 people out of a million watching the show that he got it right. And there we have it, he has a 100 people saying he can read mind.
In reality he can't.

Basically, for this to happen he would have to have ALL of those emails in the breaches as well in his database. In reality, this is 100% not true as per reasons outlined above. Feel free to answer those questions.

Yea, opt in for spam, i know.

I also get regular spam in email that has an "opt out" link as well. Just a feature to satisfy legislature so he can harvest emails better.

It's just a spam harvesting machine to harvest more emails. There's really not much to it. Feel free to list all your emails there and deluding yourself it's not what it is and some magical being is hoovering over your safety.

Don't even know how to react to all of this. You are either trolling or very very stupid.

He's a stupid peasant. A simple peasant who has no understanding of what he is either saying or the information presented to him. I don't believe he's trolling.

Criminals don't care about individual people. The point of these dumps is that they're so massive that there are bound to be plenty of people who can be scammed. If your login details don't work, they (or rather their automated systems) will just move onto the next entry in the owned database.

That means a third party service which he uses was pwned, not that he was personally hacked. I receive numerous scam emails addressed to unique emails used for my mtgox, btce, bitcointalk etc accounts... because all those sites have been pwned.
