The Minneapolis Police Department is making news for a supposed hack, perpetrated at the hands of the Anonymous hacktivist group. Have I Been Pwned’s Troy Hunt said that the supposed data breach perpetrated by Anonymous is most likely a hoax. He said the data is likely not from the MPD at all, but rather a collection of widely available credentials from earlier breaches, and possibly some made-up combinations, that have been assembled into a new database for the purpose of perpetrating this hoax. The most common in the set is 123456 which makes almost 24 million appearances in the HIBP database.
