What Happened
In April 2024, records from the Italian gaming site Multiplayer.it were reposted on a hacking forum; the exposed data included email addresses, usernames, and salted MD5 password hashes, affecting about 508,255 accounts / over half a million records. Multiplayer.it later said the underlying breach actually dated back to September 2018 and was only re-shared in 2024, rather than being a new compromise.
