Holy moly!!!

Were you using LastPass around 2017? One theory that's floating is that we were all owned by a compromised LastPass extension 4-5 years ago.

Just trying to find some common thread among all of us (a thread that's different than "lastpass was owned" which presumably should be more improbable...)



I got the "Someone just used your master password" email too

Time Monday, December 27, 2021 at 3:05 PM EST Location São Paulo, SP 01323, BRAZIL IP address 160.116.190.69

I haven't used LastPass since 2016 or 2017.


Thanks for this additional confirmation/data point!

Something clearly happened around 2017 to all of us... And to see the same ip range today come up again and again is really troubling.


Actually that can very much be the case. Just checked and I signed up for it on Sun, 4 Jun 2017, 08:17, which fits the breach (not sure what was the exact date on it)
