Facebook users data 'scraped'

Details of more than 530 million Facebook users have been disclosed online in a hacking forum. The data appears to include users profile names and phone numbers as well as other details and whilst Facebook says that the data breach relates to a previously reported breach from 2019, the Irish data protection regulator has confirmed that investigations are now underway. 
 
With many millions of people from all over the world appearing to have been affected, anyone who uses the platform should be alert to the possibility that their data have been compromised.
