Adult FriendFinder Gets Hit With Massive Hack; UK Government Officials Exposed; US Politicians On The List?

Online adult and hookup site Adult FriendFinder allegedly suffered from a massive hack, exposing more than 400 million users' information including information from UK government officials. 

The alleged hack exposed the 400 million accounts of the "world's largest sex and swinger community," as what Adult FriendFinder described itself. Leaked Source also reported that millions of accounts' information from its sister sites Penthouse.com and Cams.com also leaked.

Leaked Source hack happened through a Local File Inclusion exploit. However, they did not make the data public for the people to search information.

Friendfinder Networks, the owner of Adult FriendFinder, said they are already probing the alleged situation. They did not confirm nor deny if the hack indeed happened.

They said in their statement that they already learned the information and took several steps to review the situation and bring external partners to support their investigation.

Currently, the site has more than 40 million active users. This is one of the largest allegedly hacking incident in a hookup website on the internet.

UK Government officials exposed, US Politicians included?

Thousands of allegedly email addresses from UK government were also allegedly exposed amongst the millions of contact details found in the data breach of Adult FriendFinder. However, it is not confirmed yet if all contact details associated with them are legitimate.

The data allegedly shows seven gov.uk email addresses, 1,119 from the Ministry of Defense, and 12 from the Parliament. Not only that, it also shows 54 from UK police, 437 from National Health Service, and 2,028 from UK schools.

It is still not yet confirmed if all of these alleged email addresses are associated with the real email account holders with some are obviously far from being authentic. 

Last year, Ashley Madison also suffered a massive hack attack with 37 million accounts exposed, including 92 Ministry of Defense email addresses and 124 gov.uk email addresses.
