if you still have twitter accounts, change your passwords. that's about all you can do since 2FA is paywalled :^)

in reply to @spookybiscuits's post:
I dont pay for Twitter and I use 2FA with an authentication app just fine. It's 2FA through SMS (that nobody should use anyway) that is paywalled.
It looks as though passwords weren't among the information leaked. Via the linked article:
Due to its public availability, we can observe that forum users are already accessing the files several times that contains the following data.
Email addresses
Names
Twitter account details
Email addresses associated with Twitter accounts can be used for phishing, spamming, or other malicious activities. The full names of X (Twitter) users and information about Twitter accounts, including usernames, profile information, and other details, can be used to identify individuals and potentially link them to other online profiles.
“The leaked database was obtained from a recent Twitter data breach and has been verified by Cyber Press Team to ensure the accuracy of the data. The breach is believed to have occurred most recently, although the exact date is not specified. The leaked data includes a wide range of information, making it a significant concern for privacy and security.”
Although the Cyber Press Team has verified the accuracy of the email addresses for several of the listed Twitter profiles, the complete data set has not yet been confirmed.
Whether or not your information is included in this data set is contingent upon whether your email address was compromised in previous data breaches.
It also seems unclear if this is a NEW new breach, or just a new person trying to sell data that was included in previous breaches
HMMM you may be right. i wish there was more info available!!
