Title: Snapchat hackers leak 4.6 million phone numbers Post by: BTCIndia on January 03, 2014, 08:51:58 AM Like Cryptolocker they're asking for Bitcoins. Have they made information public yet? If yes, then where can one get a hold on this data (treasure) for further research.

It is more like Blackmail. Shameless people.

But what about snapchat and their security levels? Every service gets hacked if there's people interested. I'm sure they'll fix the vulnerabilities but their reputation will be hurt. Although, you would be surprised about how many people don't care about this sort of thing.
