Hacker group LulzSec published the accounts of over 62,000 emails and passwords for free for download.
Mikko H. Hypponen from F-secure believes that the emails and passwords were from a database kept by website Writerspace.com, according to the Hacker News.
Gizmodo took the database and has made a script for users to input their email address to check it against the release from LulzSec. Unless you were a member of Writerspace, you're probably not affected, but this is a good way to confirm.

is it really worth the potential prison time? followed too, lovely writing.
That's pretty scary and a bit of a stupid way to raise awareness about security.
Well, that's just great.
It's going to be really funny when they are caught
Oh, they're /very/ good.
Who knows what they are capable of!?!
Boy, that's fun. Nerd hackers ruining it for everyone!
This is freaking serious!
That's crazy...im glad im not a member of that site, but i feel bad for the people that are...damn lulzsec
This kind of thing just makes me sick. People are so evil.
I don't know how these guys don't get caught. The age of the internet is a strange one. So many ways to get around things nowadays.
I heard a couple people were arrested from the psn hack. Hope more get arrested.
wow this is epic. Adclics please??
I love the lulz sec :D
I will folloy you :D
There are soooo many conspiracy theories about this. There's one that they're really the government doing all this and they're doing it as a ploy to try and rally support against real hackers so that people will think anyone who knows how to use a computer well is all suspicious.
