It's actually quite correct. What is ill informed is you not understanding anything about everything. I work on security far more then you have even thought about and know far more about these things then you do, but that is even besides the point, nether i can prove it to you, nor do i care to prove it to you. The availability he would need to have to "check" if your email is hacked from all the databases that he claims to check against would make his site the prime target for every email theif on the planet. His database would also be humangous and preserve a constant security threat from those same companies the databases were stolen. Yea, im sure they gave their consent into something like this. Don't be as stupid as you sound.

However, what i do know, and can prove, is that i put a bullshit made up email that came back as "breached". And no, no one else has tried that one since i would sooner win the lottery then for that to happen.
What i did then was try an email i do own that i didnt register anywhere, and it also came back as "breached" and it even lists the databases it is on, and it lists sites that i didn't visit EVER. It listed just some random sites that the guy presumes my ip uses.

So yea, it's a hoax to capture emails. But by all means, go and put all your mails in there.
