500,000 Zoom Accounts Found on The Dark Web

It seems more than 500,000 Zoom user accounts were discovered up on the dark web.

Although this is not Zoom being hacked, but most likely it's users re-using their email and password combinations.
It will most likely result in more "zoombombing"

Cyble was able to purchase roughly 530,000 accounts for $0.0020 each, thereby obtaining their email address, password, personal meeting URL, and host key (the 6-digit pin number Zoom meeting hosts can use). Many of the accounts for sale belonged to companies or institutions including Chase, Citibank, and numerous universities. The firm told Bleeping Computer that it had started to see accounts pop up for sale since April 1, with the posters seeking to boost their reputation among hacker communities.

That date matches very much with date since lockdowns got declared in countries like India. I know for sure that zoom usage increased many times in India because of lockdown. Even school teachers are using it to take online classes. I think children would have also registered on zoom app and a lot of this stolen info belongs to school going children.
