In the morning, a "letter of happiness" came from the Have i been pwned service, in which they said that a 30-gigabyte customer base had been stolen from the SDEK delivery service.
They stole names, phone numbers and e-mail addresses. If you have ever received a package through this service, it is quite possible that your data, alas, is available to attackers.
On the https://haveibeenpwned.com write:
"In early 2022, a group known as the IT Army, whose stated goal is to "completely deanonymize most Russian users by leaking hundreds of gigabytes of databases”, published more than 30 GB of data, allegedly obtained from a Russian courier SDEK services. The data contained over 19 million unique email addresses, as well as names and phone numbers. The authenticity of this data cannot be established at this time."
According to RBC "On February 26, information appeared in the Telegram channels that two files with data were posted on the shadow forum CDEK users: one contains 466 million lines (user ID and phone number), the second contains 822 million lines (ID, full name and address Email)". Most likely in these files there were data for each package.
The conclusion from all this can be very disappointing. Yes, it is inconvenient, difficult and takes a lot of time and effort, but the moment has come when for critical and non-critical applications, you need to have at least two different phone numbers and two email accounts. For critical (Government services, banks, wallets) one pair, which should not be disclosed to anyone and not published anywhere, for non-critical (delivery services, shops, Internet services, phone calls) the second.
Peace for everyone!
