I assume you have all heard about Lulzsec over the past few months so I will not go into their backstory and instead get straight to the point.

Yesterday, 26th June 2011, they released their last data dump on ThePirateBay (TPB) containing usernames and passwords from a few different sources. One of those sources was hackforums.net, I myself had registered here once upon a time. Luckily I had signed up with a disposable password. It turns out however that, yes, that password was leaked in the final lulzsec data dump.

The data dump has now been removed from TPB due to some of the files allegedly being infected with malware. So I found this site which allows you to search for your email address to see if you may have been effected;

So then I began to wonder, If I was on that list, who else I knew may have been on it.

So I decided to write a quick Ruby script which would check just that.

First off, I had to download my Google contacts. To do this simply go to http://contacts.google.com.

I exported all of my contacts in Excel format. Highlighted the email column and pasted them into a file called contacts.txt. (remove the column name from the text file)

Then simply run my (very rushed, it’s 1AM) Ruby script which can be found here; http://www.pastie.org/2126584 (you will need to install the Typhoeus gem)

Out of my 900 contacts, 4 of them were in the lulzsec data dump. I have informed them.

Try it out and inform your contacts too!

I just checked the list and i didn't find my email addy there (good for me ).

Have you been receiving spam messages lately from your twitter friends, fbk friends and those on your mail box contact list? If yes, pls share the link http://dazzlepod.com/lulzsec/final/ with them.

If you eventually find your email addy here, pls change your pwds ASAP and another thing, NEVER YOU USE THE SAME PWD TWICE.

Yes, and end up forgetting everything.

or you could just do for something like this

Facebook = slyrox@faceb00k.com
twitter = slyrox@tw11ter.com

The "forgot your password" button is one of my best friends .

Thank God I no follow .

BTW, Slyr0x: looks like you have a new neighbor who likes to rattle door knobs and get slammed behind the firewall. Interestingly though, he hasn't known the corrupt practice of lobbying the gateman to let him loose so he can continue rattling. Ikechukwu mobinga, well done.
