A miscreant using the handle KryptonZambie is selling what they claim are approximately 183.7 million business contact records (corporate emails, phone numbers, addresses, employers, job titles, and social links) allegedly aggregated from data broker Pure Incubation/DemandScience; a 100,000-record sample and a $6,000 price were posted and Have I Been Pwned listed the incident. DemandScience says the information appears to be publicly available business contact data and not sensitive consumer credentials, and there is no confirmed evidence the company systems were breached.
