FALSE STORY. LocalBitcoins hacked & usernames for sale?

Mon Apr 25, 2016 5:36 am

See http://www.bitcoinfuturesguide.com/bitc ... ale-online

I have not verified this. Take it for what it is worth.

This story is false. It was a good lead and I was going to write about it as well but it's not true (thankfully). LocalBitcoins already tweeted that they weren't hacked and their db isn't for sale. Someone is trying to make some money.

Thanks! I'm really glad about that! I've updated the title to reflect.
