Per sources, personal data of over 260,000 registered users of the Trident Crypto Fund was left bare for people to exploit as per they wished to.
Reports mention that the leaked data comprised of phone numbers, encrypted passwords, email addresses, and IP addresses.
The aforementioned data was discovered to be published on several “file-sharing” websites in the past month.
