Snapchat hack affects 4.6 million users

[Catchy]

The usernames and phone numbers for 4.6 million Snapchat accounts have been downloaded by hackers, who temporarily posted the data online.A website called SnapchatDB released the data but censored the last two digits of the phone numbers.
It has since been taken offline but a cached version is still available.
The hack comes days after an Australian firm, Gibson Security, warned of vulnerabilities in Snapchat's app which it said could be exploited by hackers.
Gibson Security said it was not involved in the hack: "We know nothing about SnapchatDB, but it was a matter of time till something like that happened," the firm tweeted.
The hackers behind the website that published the data said they had exploited the security flaw highlighted by Gibson Security.
"We used a modified version of gibsonsec's exploit/method," they werequoted as saying by tech blog, Tech Crunch.

Ouch, that really sucks for those people. Thankfully my information was not leaked.

I am definitely a snapchat user, it is one of my 3 favorite apps. I bet the creators of SnapChat are regretting turning down the 3 billion dollar offer that Facebook made.

According to something I have read on Reddit, the leaks might be only limited to so many states in the USA. Not sure how true that is though.

I'm glad I don't use the app, to be fair - but it could happen with a lot of apps.
