I use the “Have I Been Pwned” service (according to the article) to test against Gmail address with common nick name.

And here is the “Oh no, pwned!”

FYI, “pwned” is defined as a corruption of the word “Owned.”

My own domain email addresses are ok but my gmail address has been pwned.

Oh no — pwned!

Pwned on 12 breached sites and found no pastes

I am not sure what can be done with pwned account.

Changing password? Or turning on 2-step verification?

I get umpteen spam with my gmail account. It’s spam filter is an absolute joke.

These people who hack email addresses should be given heavy prison sentences .

Yes, it is:

Good news — no pwnage found!

Weird I’ve been full of spam in these weeks. :slight_smile:
