Data compromised
Actor-claimed 127,380,566 records described as Badoo user leads with “full details” (field inventory not independently validated). Authenticity, uniqueness, and currency unverified — recordsAffected uses actor count.
Technical writeup
Unverified threat-actor sale claim — Daily Dark Web / dark-web intelligence posting (August 2026) advertised a dataset allegedly containing 127,380,566 Badoo-associated user leads with “full details.” Analyst notes on the same post stress the listing alone does not prove a fresh Badoo system compromise or that records are authentic, unique, or current. Distinct from badoo-forum2026 (~51M July claim) and from historical HIBP Badoo loads. BreachHistory labels the row unverified and indexes recordsAffected 127380566 as the actor-cited figure.
Root cause
Unverified dark-web / threat-intel listing advertising alleged Badoo “user leads” dataset (~127.3M) — Badoo had not confirmed a matching new compromise at indexing; distinct from July 2026 ~51M forum-sale claim row
