Pussycash hacked????
 

oh shit maybe my name is in there

Sounds like they configured their setup incorrectly than an actual hack attempt.

"This".

If the story is true, then big shame on you Pussycash/ImLive. Irresponsible behavior on
your part. There is a reasonable expectation that people's personal data be kept secure.

Made the news in Holland also.

Yeah it's one thing to fuck up some coding or server thing and get hacked, it's another to leave a directory on amazon wide open...

That's really bad =(

Hi Guys, you can all be relaxed, no hacking and no nothing...
@ Pussycash Privacy and the protection of user data is a top priority and concern for us. For this reason, we acted promptly and removed public access to the open folder as soon as vpnMentor (the technological research firm) alerted us to this fact.
It must be emphasized that no information was leaked, with the exception of vpnMentor. We are certain that they will not use it for any purpose.

Also worth noting is that the folder in question is from 2013. It includes details of purchased marketing materials of professional actors who provided videos and images for marketing purposes, which were used to promote various websites. The files actually confirmed that all the actors are over the age of 18.

We must emphasize that the information included in the folder contains no information of any performers or members of any website promoted by PussyCash.com, including ImLive.com.
As mentioned above, the folder was promptly removed from public access and instructions were reiterated to the various technical departments regarding ongoing controls in respect to information storage.

Ease up :)

Shay you must be joking with the "ease up" and the folder was from 2013, so the personal information contained in it, are not relevant.

Are you suggesting that the article published grossly misrepresented the facts, and data like social security numbers were not in that folder?

Ouch, even if its just content for marketing materials that wouldn't be good. Hopefully the legal names of the models in question are still safe.

Damn they were so bad these days..sorry for them

So who's got those model emails? 😁🙄

:1orglaugh :helpme . . .

Hit me up for emails. I have all your emails and all of these models (inc nikki).

Donny Long just got moist

There were obviously model releases/contracts with IDs. There is no reason they would just make that up?
They even posted some screenshots of the model release and IDs

BBC wouldn't report that without seeing any proof.

The BBC article has a link to the VPNmentor blog post which contains much greater detail and more photos.
Report: Adult Site Leaks Extremely Sensitive Data of Cam Models

It's unfortunate that this situation happened with PussyCash, but hopefully it's a wake up call to everyone else in the industry to reevaluate their handling of personally identifiable information and take the necessary steps to protect it, whether it involves models/performers, affiliates, employees or others.

wondering...

how would we, (a person given details to one of these sites), know if their information has been leaked?

If it's the 75. No worries.

I'm surprised more porn sites haven't been hacked. Or maybe we just don't know.

iWantClips just had a breach right on the heels of ImLive / PussyCash. And not too long after VTS Media.

:2 cents:
Some of the folders are likely to be up to 20 years old, but at the same time, the most recent folders are believed to have been created approximately a few weeks ago.

Damn.. I just started to promote them again...
