Change your passwords, that is the best thing you can do. Personally I would love to see some additional security features such as 2fa implemented somehow. There should be enough funds for forum development to introduce this right?
I think that 2fa will be implemented in the new forum, but I can't be too sure on that. Anyways, this is most definitely in connection to the data breach, does this warrant a negative trust from DT members seeing as those account are hacked? New forum? , Epochtalk. |

The forum strives to allow free discussion of any ideas. All policies are built around this principle. This doesn't mean you can post garbage, though: posts should actually contain ideas, and these ideas should be argued reasonably.

Why have I not heard of it until now? I thought https://bitcointa.lk/ was the new forum. What's that supposed to be? |

Feels spooky. Ancient Bitcointalk accounts are starting to log in. Do you think this is connected to a forum breach?
There's nothing spooky about it. If their passwords have not been changed since the data breach in 2015, then there's always a chance that they will get compromised. No, that website has nothing to do with BTCT except that it stole all of the data created by its users. If you log in there, there's a decent chance that your account will be compromised. maybe its just admins ? No. |

Hacked? Sold to users by the hackers? Or sold by the original owners?
Thoses old accounts are valuable and shouldn't imo been sold... Ofc since there is a rule about it, let's see the admins reaction
I doubt if they were hacked.I think someone created them and left for account farming but didn't get time to make posts.Is there any sign of recent password changes in their activity log?I am approached by one member who claims to have lots of newbies account created in 2013 |

Talk about being created only a few days after Satoshi founded the forum. |

I saw in digital good section lots of users selling old accounts with low UID number.. I think these accounts are probably hacked and now being sold... so all those people who selling these accounts are may be hackers or have some connections to hackers.

Does it really that valuable? it is.. many people would like to have in possession a very old account with 2 digits ID, in the other hand here is an example of what could be done with an old account with a high rank stincks too much...  |

The forum breach/leak that everyone is talking about happened a year ago so why suddenly everyone is talking about it and since then we were asked to change our passwords so everything should be okay (unless those users never changed their passwords)
Looking at the UID of the users and their current ranks , I'd say they were inactive for long long time , they probably left the forums .
Yes. It happened a year ago but the database was sold only recently if I read the news right. Maybe the buyer have found out how to crack those passwords. I know Theymos encrypted them well but decryption solutions can be found if the person doing it is motivated enough. That is why we are getting new updates in encryption software because they are solved and decrypted sooner or later. |

A few days ago, someone tried to use the data from the forum breach to try extract money from me. The guy was particularly unintelligent and made some pretty cringe-worthy mistakes, which probably means the data from the forum breach has just reached a wide circulation. (I'm guessing) |
Check out gamblingsitefinder.com for a decent list/rankings of crypto casinos. Note: I have no affiliation or interest in it, and don't even agree with all the rankings ... but it's the only uncorrupted review site I'm aware of. |

It just because of leaked happens the forum database May 2011 was hacked and that's the reason why those account are being activated again i recommend to everyone that those account who created 2011 or below are change your password immediately before its to late its better to become a secured now than late. And i visited Auction thread before and saw lots of old account are requesting for loans.

How about an email verification system for those who are logging back after a long time? This might not help for those who lost their email account but still it can stop this problem to some extent I guess.

(I'm guessing) Here's the explanation behind the cringiness of it (it's for emails, but this is also applicable) http://security.stackexchange.com/q/96121/70515tl;dr Only the gullible reads the message. They're the kind of people that the scammers would try to exploit. This effectively creates a sort of low-pass filter. |

I'm sure theymos could check the IPs of the recent activities. I'd say that this is an easy case to solve for an admin. |
