This is for all you Dirty Old Men out there :lotpot:

Earlier this week, it was reported that adult dating website Adult Friend Finder had been compromised and sensitive information on nearly 4 million users was stolen.

The data breach was reported by Channel Four in the UK.

Adult Friend Finder claims to have around 64 million users around the globe. In this leak, leaked information includes IP addresses, e-mail addresses, dates of birth, post codes and even seuxal preferences and other sensitive information.

Worse, data that was leaked even included information from accounts that had been deleted from the service by user request.

Shortly after the data breach, affected users were targeted with spam and malware-laced e-mails. There are also concerns that leaked information may be used for blackmail purposes.

"We have already begun working closely with law enforcement and have launched a comprehensive investigation with the help of leading third-party forensics expert, Mandiant," the firm said earlier this week.
 
I suppose, the lesson to be drawn is to stick to virtual life porn and keep away from services for real life sex.
 
hah, no problem for me. Wasn't using that crap. But if they acquired info from accounts that were supposedly deleted by user request, how did they get access to that data. Obviously the accounts werent deleted, the eu privacy commision would have a field day with them for that one.
