Holy crap, that sure is a lot of stolen user names and passwords.

A security firm says it has found 360 million login credentials, mostly with unencrypted passwords, on black-market websites frequented by online criminals. Alex Holden, chief information security officer of Milwaukee-based Hold Security, told Reuters Tuesday (Feb. 25) that the credentials — username and password pairs —came from multiple data breaches and were collected during the first three weeks of February.
 
Username: Admin
Password: password

Wanna bet that's been used 360 million times?
 
it'd be nice to be able to check if your info was in them :p

Most of these are probably collected from the phishing sites which 'let' you check if your username and password is in the list. Just type both and voila, it will tell you it was just added :D
 
360 million dollars worth of bitcoins stolen, 360 million stolen login credentials found.
Coincidence ...?
 
Is there a website were I can enter my credentials too see if I've been compromised?
