Confused-

Yes, I saw the email search. What I am curious about is will they ever have a home address search? That's what scares me.

There was a link here yesterday in the second post, on the first page. I guess it's no longer working? That link lead to a site that gave the option of an email address and/or a name.

Im sorry it's not working.

ETA: Searching for a name lead to a page full of men with the same name as FWH's. It showed addresses(at least the city and state..can't recall if home addresses were given)..and had various other facts from their profile. I didn't pay much attention..I was skimming through, looking for our city/state to match my FWH's name.

Ok those that need more instructions:

Get the TOR browser

https://www.torproject.org/projects/torbrowser.html.en

use this onion link in the TOR browser http://yuc3i3hat65rpl7t.onion/stuff/impact-team-ashley-release.html

Next, you will need software to download the torrent.

Windows: I like deluge http://deluge-torrent.org/

there are plenty out there

Mac http://www.utorrent.com/downloads/mac

the onion link downloads the torrent, open the torrent with the above software after downloading.

Once you have the files, you can use

Windows:

http://www.7-zip.org/download.html for the files to be extracted.

Mac: should do it automatically.

after you have extracted the files, just open .dump and other files with a text editor.

PLEASE NOTE THIS TAKES A WHILE to open as each file is HUGE AND you need a pretty powerful computer.

Windows: use http://www.sublimetext.com/3

Mac use textEdit.

AGAIN THESE will open but take a long time. Sublime will use a progress bar. TextEdit if your computer cannot handle it will error out.

You can also change files to have a .CSV extension and use a spreadsheet to open them but likely will max and only show you a portion.

Hope this helps. files with data have a large file size, as the smaller ones are just PGP keys.

I read that they did have street addresses and were able to link it to Josh's home address.

some one suggested using Trustify to have them get the info for you. Has anyone tried that?

So the only way to search home address/credit card info, etc is to go download all these crazy files on the dark web? How many curious-only people will do that? I already know the info I need. I just don't want it shared with my neighbors. But they should only see it if they are looking specifically?

yes the only way is to go through the credit card transactions which is done by a file per date going back to 2007.

Lots of files to open and search basically.

Thank you all so much for answering questions. I am just beside myself worrying about this. I am a private person and I dealt with fwh husband infidelity years ago. And now having thus info out there feels like such a violation. I understand the unfaithful ones have consequences for their actions. But to those of us that were innocent in all of this it feels like a huge violation of our privacy. We never asked for any of this.

I know the focus is infidelity,but remember that ALL passwords need to be reset if you set up an account there to snoop or even if your Wayward did. I would shut any cc used down now.

This information is most likely going to be harvested by other hackers for ID theft etc. These AM hackers have created a nightmare that may play our for years.

Lawyers are calling it Christmas in August. Nothing like profiting from pain, right?

Those with military addys could face jail time and loss of pensions. None of us know how far the ripple effect will be. Innocent people are already suffering. Kids are checking on their parents addy's.

My addy is there. I checked on hubby. Step kids are computer whizes. Jeepers!

I oddly feel better. I just checked almost everyone I know. Not a single hit. Feels like I just set down an elephant right now. Im going to go make my H his favorite dinner. Im in that good of a mood now. And I checked all emails and his name. Sorry for anyone that did get hits on their spouses.

And I know he could have used a throw away email and fake name. But he hasn't done that before. I get that it doesn't mean he wouldn't. Im just saying that he seems to lack the for-thought for it so far. That and I snooped through his computer's hard drive , laptop, tablet and his phone.I didn't find anything too.I know it was wrong but why I was being all paranoid hey why not go through everything. Even his encrypted files which just seem to be some work related stuff. All I found were pictures of our son, me and his cat.

I am with AmberGray on this one. My H was on it. I knew from Dday he was on it since he told me and he had made his account with a secret email and he never even messaged anyone on it. Found his OW through work.

However, I went on it using our shared email back 10 months ago because he couldn't find his profile and thought it was erased and I wanted to double check. So I got on there with his knowledge using my regular email address because I had nothing to hide. Didn't see the hackers coming. :(

Now, we are well on our way into a healthy R, nobody in my family or my friends know anything and this stupid hack can very easily blow it to the open. I have been sick about this all day.

I hate that the worst nightmare of my life could very easily be discovered because I wanted to double check on my own that his profile was gone and since I wasn't on there doing anything I wasn't supposed to, I used our joint email. I can't believe how naïve I was. :/

On a side note: the Today show gave a great plug for this website on their 2nd hour of their show this morning. I suspect we will have many new people signing up in the days to come.

Well didn't get to the dump site in time. I knew about one email being there, way, way back when it was new and free. I gave him the benefit of the doubt then that with the work he does he was just "curious". But the email he used between that one and his current one checks out as being there too. His current email does not. So the SOB had a second account after being found out the first time. What a shit! And for years I was accused of not trusting enough, turns out I was too damn trusting. And so it goes.

MakingMyFuture ( member #43530) posted at 2:00 AM on Saturday, August 22nd, 2015

I'm just done. So completely done.

I was so surprised and happy to hear when this company got hit. After seeing so many respectable organizations suffer from a breach, it was the first time I was actually happy instead of horrified. If any company and user community ever deserved it it would be this one.

My heart goes out to the innocent people who will be impacted by this but I'm grateful that they will at least have the opportunity to know the truth of their own lives and make an informed decision instead of being duped, degraded and endangered by their spouses.

For me, I already knew my XWH was on AM. I had seen his profile with a significant portion of his face and have since had other confirmations. He had finally admitted it was his photo, but insisted someone else had posted it. I was so sick of the bullshit I was willing to take it to court just as an FU to prove he was lying. I finally got smart and realized my sanity was worth more than him.

So now out of nowhere this company gets hacked. Initially I was so happy even though I didn't think anything would come of it. Now that data is actually out there, I got back into crazy 'wanting proof' mode. Simply because I am so sick of the fact that he gets away with denying the things he has done wrong unless there is difinitive proof and this was the one thing I couldn't prove beyond any doubt. Because he couldn't deny anything else I could prove, he now lives in the 'I made some mistakes (aka cheated) but she was horrible and is crazy to think I would ever do AM!!).

I would just like to hold it up to him with a 'see, yeah now we are agreement...you really are the biggest POS on the earth'. But what would be the point? I already know he is. I already know he has no concience. I already know the truth. I don't know why I feel the need to prove to an abuser that I know he is an abuser.

I've wasted days of sleep over this. I've taken time away from my kids and myself to spend more time simply to validate what I already know.

For those of you trying to get answers, I wish you all the best of luck. For those of us who already know the truth....may we all step off the crazy train and not let these disordered shits take another moment of our sanity.

If anyone can search for me or send a link, I would appreciate it. I've been positing since my D-day and I guess it would be a relief to know if he had a profile or not. Thanks.
