Details

On July 5, 2022, a reputed threat actor "All3in" from the BreachForums posted a data breach package targeting MemeChat (memechat[.]app), an Indian-based online money earning app through competing with meme creators. The threat actor noted that the data dump includes 7.4m lines of user information with username, user id and email. The data dump was also circulated in the deep web forum Cracked on July 16, 2022 by the threat actor "Mahony". From the package published in BreachForums, ZeroFox extracted 4,330,769 usernames and email addresses. No passwords were found in this breach.

Recommendations

  • If not already enabled, turn on the compromised credentials rule for all relevant entities and ensure relevant emails are entered for those entities, or reach out to [email protected] for assistance
  • If one of your entities receives an alert, ZeroFox recommends immediate password changes for the affected account
  • Enable 2-factor authentication for all of your organizational accounts to help mitigate phishing and credential stuffing attacks
