What Happened
Likely in early 2015, the video game website GameTuts suffered a data breach and over 2 million user accounts were exposed. The site later shut down in July 2016 but was identified as having been hosted on a vBulletin forum. The exposed data included usernames, email and IP addresses and salted MD5 hashes.
