INTERNATIONAL DRAFTING.- The mobile phone number of Mark Zuckerberg, founder and CEO of Facebook, is one of the data that was leaked in the last and massive crack of this social network, which affected 530 million accounts worldwide, of which 11 correspond to Spain.

Zuckerberg’s name, location and marriage information, date of birth and his Facebook user ID were among the personal details that were posted on a hacker forum on Saturday, confirmed cyber researcher Dave Walker, according to the Daily Mail.

Personal data of the same nature of two other of the co-founders of the giant Facebook, Chris Hughes and Dustin Moskovitz, were also leaked, according to this newspaper.

“This is old data, which was reported in 2019. We found and fixed this vulnerability in August of that year,” the company said in a statement sent to the media.

The database appears to be the same set of numbers circulating in hacker circles since at least January, according to Alon Gal, co-founder of Israeli cybercrime intelligence firm Hudson Rock.

That information had been sold and resold to cybercriminals for some time, but Saturday’s leak on the hacker forum now makes it available for free.
