Last month, a Telegram bot appeared that gave out a link to a user's Facebook profile by their phone number.

A database containing more than 370 million rows was published in the public domain. It includes 108 text files, each of which contains data from Facebook users from a particular country.

According to the Telegram channel "Information Leaks", after combining, clearing of duplicates and adding data on Afghanistan (the file of this country appeared earlier, but this leak is missing), 370,583,638 rows are obtained in the database. Facebook Facebook profiles contain the first and last names of Facebook users, phone numbers, email addresses, Facebook IDs, gender information, and other information that users enter in the profile header.

As previously reported, last month, a Telegram bot appeared, issuing a link to the user's Facebook profile by phone number. The bot found information in a database collected in 2019 using a vulnerability in a social network.

Various versions of this database were sold on the darknet at a price of $8-20 thousand. Recently, some sellers offer an even more favorable price – $1.5 thousand.
