BreachForums suffered a data breach in August 2025 that exposed about 324,000 user records—including emails, usernames, Argon2-hashed passwords, IP data and possibly PGP keys—which were posted publicly; Resecurity and Have I Been Pwned analyzed the leak and found ties to real cybercriminals, while the forum administrator attributes the disclosure to an unsecured backup during site restoration, and publication raises the risk of identification and arrest for those named.
