The company's 3 February 2023 notice said the list originated inside the company; its 15 March update said the data was stolen or acquired from cloud storage maintained by a former service provider used during 2019. The company reported no evidence of malicious activity on its own network. A verified breach index dates the event to 12 April 2019 and reports 11,943,887 unique email addresses; that structured date must not be treated as an exact acquisition date that the company did not disclose.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>According to the company notice, the document contained first and last names, email addresses, phone numbers in some records, passwords hashed with scrypt, and expired, inactive password-reset tokens. The notice specifically said the list did not evidence user activity such as queries or reports, payment information, readable or usable passwords, or another means to compromise accounts. Expired tokens are not presented as working password-reset links.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Ch2>Count and privacy boundary\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\u003Cp>The 11,943,887 value is a unique-email count, not a count of unique people, active subscriptions, or rows containing every field. Reports of more than 20 million accounts across TruthFinder and Instant Checkmate are not added to this record. Production has no local import job or searchable person-level corpus linked to the incident. An email match does not establish which queries a person made, which reports they viewed, whom they researched, whether they paid, or whether they remain a customer today.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Ch2>Safe next steps\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\u003Cp>If a person independently knows the old password used for this account and still uses the same or a similar password on another active account, replace that reused password with a unique one and enable multifactor authentication, especially on the associated email account. Subscription, refund, data-removal, or security messages containing a real name, email, or phone number should be verified through a previously known official channel rather than a link or number in the message. A match must not be used to infer search history, report content about third parties, or account takeover.\u003C\u002Fp>","","Instant Checkmate 2019 Data Breach (11.9 Million Email Identifiers)","The Instant Checkmate breach included 11,943,887 unique emails.
