Whatsapp Contact List Leak
« on: July 06, 2014, 06:13:43 PM »
Hello all.

This is my first post so don't knock me out if i do anything wrong :)

Ok so, there was this leak at the whatsapp servers, before it was possible to hijack accounts and so on. Also there was a leak so it was able to check if someone on your contact list also has whatsapp. I dont know if this still works i dont think it will, i would have to check it.

So what i did was creating phonenumber lists for example from +39 300 000001 to +39 399 999999 and made lookup if there are matches on this numbers. I tuned my script in many ways and could check like 1.000.000 numbers in like 2 hours.

As a result, i have like , hm, approximately 30 to 60 mio numbers from EU mobil phone numbers from smartphones now.

This was more a whatsapp failure then a hack or something.

What to do now, how to act, make it public, sell and go to jail? :D

Maybe its a good idea to make it public just to show how insecure big companys are!?

Let me know what you think about this.

I think you can't remove it now

haha i knew you are going to do this. but i dont want to delelte this. why should we do this. we should let mr. zuckerberg now about what he was buying for billions for something that a newbie could get for like nothing. *kidding*.

Follow me on twitter @patek1337 to see what i am going to do with the data and information. you should, this could go very viral.
