I was just informed by a video of tiktok that a hacker is going around in Wattpad and finding out emails and selling them on the dark web. I advise if you are an author/ the author to backup your books on a hard drive or change your email to a new and random one you don’t mind getting stolen. The @ for the tik is laughingo. If you want to find out if you were sold on there go to this website https://haveibeenpwned.com and enter the email you’re using for wattpad and if it says your have not been pwned then you’re good but if it says that your email was breached then change your wattpad email to a random email strictly for wattpad and then switch all the stuff on the breaches email account to a different one and CHANGE YOUR WATTPAD PASSWORD!!! A lot of people are saying that you have to deactivate your Wattpad account THAT IS NOT TRUE! I looked more into it and apparently this is something going on since June 2020 and there are over 210 billion wattpad emails getting sold on the black web. Make sure you have backed up your libraries and stories! Wattpad is currently looking into the situation further. If anyone wants further updates i can inform anyone who wants to know anything once i know more. Stay safe.
