The breach dates from Aug 6, 2018; Have I Been Pwned loaded it on Nov 7, 2018.
What to do
- If you had a Rbx.Rocks account, change its password and the password of any other account that reused it.
- Turn on multi-factor authentication wherever it is offered.
- Check whether your addresses are in this breach at https://haveibeenpwned.com.
- Expect targeted phishing that quotes the leaked details; verify any unexpected contact out of band.
