Reports of a large collection of Facebook user accounts to include the user's full name, phone numbers, birthdates, bios, eMail addresses.
Armed with this detailed information attackers can use the data to attack the user and/or take over the Facebook account holder's IDentity.
Be very careful with explicit and implicit trust. Add this breach to the SolarWinds, the Microsoft Exchange server vulnerability and attacks, and all other manner of breaches of trust, ransomware, and cyber attacks - we all need to ratchet up our awareness, preparedness, and understanding.
I will add to this post as more detail becomes available.
Current counts of the stolen accounts: 533,000,000.
Several billion people use the Internet with its trust models every day. BUT, those who are attacked have a much more difficult life afterwards. They are not after you, They are after anybody
