About This Breach
A public breach source reports 143,569 unique records or emails for approximately April 2016 with emails, IPs, usernames, and Hashed passwords. April 1 is only a month marker; there is no operator notice or exact attack day.
The local import contains email fields only and the live index has 143,186 unique emails, 383 below the external measure. Dataset version, normalization, duplicate or null values, and rejected rows remain unreconciled; the source file and backup are missing, so the transformation cannot be re-audited.
A private result establishes only that the controlled email occurs in the local subset attributed to play-gar.com. It cannot establish identity, an account or Guns and Robots use, gaming activity, username, IP, SHA-1 value, field co-occurrence, password reuse, compromise, or misuse.
A SHA-1 hash is not plaintext, and salt use and field prevalence are unverified. An authenticated old password should be replaced where it was reused. An IP is not a precise location or address, and gaming associations and credential data must remain private.
Verification and editorial method
LeakData compares the incident name, date, affected-record count, and exposed data types with accessible sources. Unverified fields are not presented as facts, and records are updated when new evidence becomes available.
