“Some of the most significant leaks came from online video gaming networks like Xbox Live, the Sony PlayStation Network, and Twitch.tv. There was information from accounts at Walmart, Amazon, and Hulu Plus, as well as keys to computer games like The Sims 3 and Dragon Age: Origins, and a whole lot of porn sites.” reports The Daily Dot in a blog post.

I believe that the hackers haven’t compromised the websites related to the stolen credentials. It is likely that the hacktivists have obtained them using a data stealer malware installed on victims’ machines  ( but this is out of the TTPs adopted by Anonymous members), but I think that the cache of credentials was obtained through the data breach of computers of a different criminal crew.

The Daily Dot also reported that some Anonymous members have denied any involvement of the popular group Anonymous. Doing a few searches on the Internet I found a post on PasteBin that sustains that stolen data are fake, below an abstract of its content that speculate on the alleged sources:

It is important to understand the reason why these guys are disclosing fake data. Fake information causes damage to the reputation of the Anonymous collective, which will be the reaction of the main collective? Someone wants to throw mud on them to destroy their credibility.

In any case take care of your credentials, as precaution you can change your passwords for the impacted services, use different credentials for any web service also monitor your banking account paying attention to suspicious credit card transactions.
