More than 1.4 billion logins and passwords for services like Netflix, LinkedIn, My Space and even Bitcoin platforms have leaked on the internet, according to internet security company 4iQ.
Looking for data stolen, leaked or lost on the deep and dark web, they found a database of account information. None of the passwords were encrypted.
According to the company, several passwords were tested and proved true. In all, the bank, which was found on December 5, has 41GB.
For the company, the file with more than 1.4 billion passwords is the largest database found on the dark web to date.

Given the fact that people reuse passwords on their email, social networking, e-commerce, banking and work accounts, hackers can automate account hijacking or theft, 1 Jul38, founder of 4iQ, said on his website. .
