Binance denies that the data came from a breach of its systems. Instead, it blames malware on infected user devices.
According to Dark Web Informer, a cyber news site covering underground activities, a hacker known as AKM69 is selling a database containing 100,000 records of Gemini users.
Dark Web Data Sale Highlights Security Risks for Crypto Users
The dataset reportedly includes full names, emails, phone numbers, and location data of individuals, mainly from the U.S., with some entries from Singapore and the UK. “The threat actor categorized the listing as part of a broader campaign of selling consumer data for crypto-related marketing, fraud, or recovery targeting,” Dark Web Informer reported in a March 27 blog post. Gemini has not yet responded to requests for comment.
A day earlier, Dark Web Informer reported that another hacker, going by the name kiki88888, had listed Binance user emails and passwords for sale. This dataset reportedly contains 132,744 records. However, Binance told Cointelegraph that the leaked information did not originate from an internal breach. Instead, it said the data was stolen through malware that compromised browser sessions on infected computers. “Some of you need to stop clicking random stuff,” Dark Web Informer noted in a follow-up post, suggesting that user security habits contributed to the exposure.

While the sale of such data raises alarms, Binance maintains that this is not the result of a direct hack of its platform. Instead, it points to users falling victim to malicious software that steals login credentials. This is a stark reminder that in the world of crypto, security is a two-way street—exchanges can have top-tier defenses, but user security habits also play a critical role.
Growing Cyber Threats: Protecting Crypto Accounts from Hackers
The incident highlights the growing trend of hackers targeting individual users rather than breaking into secure exchange systems. With crypto accounts often holding significant value, bad actors are always on the lookout for easy targets. As the saying goes, “If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is.” Clicking suspicious links or downloading unknown files can lead to serious consequences.

As cyber threats continue to evolve, users must stay vigilant. Strong, unique passwords, two-factor authentication, and avoiding sketchy links are key to protecting digital assets. With hackers lurking in the shadows, it’s always wise to remember another old saying: “An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.
