Learning a new language can be difficult, which is why Duolingo has grown into such a popular service that boasts more than 74 million monthly users worldwide. However, 2.6 million of those Duolingo users are now at risk of targeted phishing attacks, after hackers leaked their personal information online.
As reported by BleepingComputer, a hacker posted on a dark web forum back in January that they were selling the scraped data of 2.6 million DuoLingo users for $1,500. Besides public logins and real names, this collection of scraped data also included non-public personal information such as user email addresses and internal information from Duolingo.
