misleading — Trust Score 35/100

While a database claiming to contain 340 million OnlyFans records was indeed listed for sale on a cybercrime forum on May 24, 2026, the claim that OnlyFans was hacked is refuted by 10 sources. Both OnlyFans and the seller have confirmed that no breach of the platform's servers occurred; instead, the dataset is a compilation of older, recycled data from previous breaches of platforms like X (Twitter) and Instagram.

Platform: INSTAGRAM Author: @digitalwealthkid --- Caption/Description --- OnlyFans is Hacked. Apparently OnlyFans has been hacked and they're selling the complete database of 340 million users, including data of content creators and consumers. The leaked data reportedly includes: • Usernames and profile names • Email addresses • Phone numbers • Account creation dates • Follower/subscriber metrics • Creator/fan rankings • Linked social media profiles • Partial payment card metadata (last 4 digits) The result of this could be a massive wave of extortion attempts, phishing scams, impersonation attacks, and privacy violations against users and creators alike. This is exactly why many people believe the future of digital identity and payments will move toward blockchain-based systems. When sensitive data is secured through decentralized infrastructure and kept off centralized databases, there's no single server for hackers to breach or exploit. Centralized databases can fail. Decentralized security changes the game. --- On-Screen Text (OCR) --- ONLYFANS HAS BEEN HACKED AND THEY'RE SELLING THE COMPLETE DATABASE OF 340 MILLION USERS Published: 2026-05-25T21:50:41.000Z ---VERIFICATION_SUMMARY--- Platform: INSTAGRAM Author: @digitalwealthkid --- Caption/Description --- OnlyFans is Hacked.

Claims analyzed (5)

  1. false: OnlyFans has been hacked.
    OnlyFans officially denied any security breach, and the hacker selling the data admitted to researchers that they did not breach or hack OnlyFans servers.
  2. misleading: A database of 340 million OnlyFans users is being sold.
    A listing for 340 million records exists, but researchers found only 10 sample records, and the data is believed to be a compilation of old leaks rather than a new, complete OnlyFans database.
  3. mixed: The leaked data includes usernames, email addresses, and phone numbers.
    Sample data reviewed by researchers contained usernames and email addresses, but phone number fields were empty in the provided samples.
  4. unverifiable: The leaked data includes partial payment card metadata such as the last 4 digits.
    While the seller claimed the database included a 'card' field with the last 4 digits, this has not been independently confirmed and is suspected to be fabricated or recycled.
  5. mostly true: The leaked data includes creator/fan rankings and linked social media profiles.
    The compilation database is reported to include metrics like follower counts and linked social profiles, which are often publicly accessible or available in older marketing datasets.
