It’s the infamous group Anonymous that makes the claim, and has as proof for the claim posted 3000 of the, said, leaked 10 million credentials on pastebin.

This will be a new category on the blog where I will try to list every site that got their passwords stolen. We will see that everyone are among good friends. It’s a both larger and smaller companies that’d think knew what they were doing.
We have LinkedIn, Nvidia, Yahoo among other fresh in memory. I will do my best to list all new occurances of leaked credentials.
I will also behind the scenes start working on two projects that will limit this problem. I will hopefully be able to officially publish one of the soon. The private blog posts will be public once this happens.
