Nearly 5 million usernames and passwords appear to have been published on a Russian Bitcoin forum.

 

Much of the information is old and potentially out-of-date, Google representatives told Russian media, so the so-called “leak” may be more accurately described as a collection of phished and hacked credentials collected over years. In fact, many of the accounts have long been suspended or are matched with very old passwords.

 

The database of usernames and passwords, which was first reported by CNews, was posted on Tuesday evening to btcsec.com, a Russian-language Bitcoin security forum. The publisher, named tvskit, posted the following screenshot of the database, claiming that over 60 percent of the passwords were valid and working.

And if you look harder, you can find the file with the addreses in plain text (not containing the passwords) and check for yourself.

 

I wouldn't trust a site to harvest BOTH my email address and my IP address.
