The accounts in question, according to what was declared by the hacker himself, were stolen through the scraping technique, or thanks to the use of a software designed ad hoc for the purpose, while the request of the cyber criminal amounts for now to $ 100,000 for the entire database. This archive not only contains Clubhouse data, however, but also a range of personal information.
