Title: bitcointalk possibly has been hacked Post by: nzminer on March 22, 2018, 04:31:31 AM A few of us, myself included have been receiving conformation emails from the Zaif exchange to verify email for registration.
And all our email addresses are registered on bitcointalk. i recieved my email on march 18th. If anyone here has had the same email, let me know here and check your SPAM folder.

You can check if your email was included in that breach or elsewhere by using https://haveibeenpwned.com/ (My email address was also in the BTC-e database when they got hacked).
The data in both of those hacks included email addresses and encrypted passwords. That's one reason so many accounts here get hacked, they had weak passwords.
