Lettutor.com Sensitive Data Breach — 7,432 User Records Exposed

Data Breach Overview
In September 2025, a dataset containing 7,432 user records from Lettutor.com, an online tutoring and language‐learning platform, was allegedly posted by user “privilege” on darkforums.st. The leak includes a wide range of personal data, account credentials, and usage metadata.


What Data Was Exposed
The dataset reportedly includes the following fields:

  • ID, Email, Password (hashed using bcrypt)

  • Linked authentication (Google, Facebook, Apple)

  • Avatar, Name, Country, Phone, Birthday

  • Activation / verification flags (IsActivated, IsPhoneActivated, IsPhoneAuthActivated)

  • Account status fields (DeletedAt, RequireNote, IsTester)

  • Activity / usage data (Language, StudySchedule, StudentGroupId)

  • Metadata such as timezone, referral, and staff handling ids (SaleByStaffId, CaredByStaffId)


Where & How Data Was Found

  • Data allegedly appeared on “darkforums.st” posted by user “privilege.”

  • It’s a “fresh dump” meaning the data appears recent (as of Sept 2025).

  • Passwords are hashed (bcrypt), which is significantly better than plaintext, but other personal data (email, phone, birthday, social media auth links) increases risk.

Company History & Prior Incidents

  • I found no readily verifiable public reports (from major cybersecurity news outlets or company statements) confirming this exact Lettutor.com breach.

  • That doesn’t necessarily mean it’s false — unverified leaks happen.


Impact and Risks

  • Account compromise: Even with bcrypt, weak passwords or reused credentials may be cracked or replayed elsewhere.

  • Phishing/scams: With email, name, country, phone exposed, attackers can craft personalized phishing or social‐engineering attacks.

  • Privacy violation: Sensitive fields (birthday, is phone activated, etc.) increase risk of identity theft.

  • Credential stuffing: If users reuse passwords, adversaries could try these credentials on other sites.

  • Reputation harm to Lettutor.com if verified, and potential legal / regulatory risk depending on GDPR or other local privacy laws (the data includes European users presumably).


Recommendations for Affected Users

  • Change your Lettutor.com password immediately, especially if it is used elsewhere.

  • If Lettutor offers two‑factor authentication (2FA), enable it.

  • Monitor your email and other accounts for suspicious login attempts.

  • Be wary of phishing messages that may reference Lettutor.com or your tutor/learning profile.

  • If your phone number is exposed, watch for unsolicited messages or calls.


Recommendations for Lettutor.com (and Similar Platforms)

  • Verify severity & authenticity of leak; perhaps run internal forensics or hire external investigators.

  • Notify affected users transparently.

  • Require or strongly encourage 2FA.

  • Limit the amount of personal metadata stored, and ensure strong encryption / hashing for sensitive data.

  • Monitor for abuse of the leaked data.
