Have I Been Pwned (@haveibeenpwned) on X

Have I Been Pwned post announcing the Sharecare breach, tied to an August ShinyHunters extortion campaign. It allegedly exposed 318k email addresses, mostly business contacts, plus some Brazilian health plan member data. 73% of the addresses were already in HIBP. This adds another health-sector victim to the ShinyHunters extortion record. The business contact data is likely to be reused for phishing.

TL;DR HIBP adds the Sharecare breach: 318k emails from an August ShinyHunters extortion campaign, 73% already in HIBP.
