User accounts were erased in the compromise.
Data leak platform Doxbib has been compromised by the Tooda cybercrime group.
According to Cybernews, the compromise was in retaliation for one of the Tooda members being called a sex offender by the leak site's admins. The compromise was claimed to have resulted in the erasure of user accounts, and the locking of administrative accounts.
Tooda hackers also claimed to have released Doxbin admins' personal information and a blacklist of individuals who had paid for the data to be removed from the site, and threatened to expose a user database with almost 136,000 username and email pairs.
However Tooda's claims of breaching Doxbin were refuted by a vx-underground source, who noted that only admin credentials have been obtained by the hacking group while the blacklist and user base information had already been exposed beforehand.
