What Happened
In October 2021, the Singaporean recruitment website Protemps suffered a data breach that exposed almost 50,000 unique email addresses. The impacted data includes names, email and physical addresses, phone numbers, passport numbers and passwords stored as unsalted MD5 hashes, among troves of other jobseeker data. The data was provided to HIBP by a source who requested it be attributed to "white_peacock@riseup.net".
