The U.S. suits were filed in California, Texas and Missouri on behalf of eight clients that live in those three states as well as Georgia, Tennessee, Minnesota and Missouri. The site, which is owned by Avid Life Media, bears the slogan “Life is short”.

ANYONE in the Taunton area who has discovered their partner is having an affair or who has been exposed as a love cheat is being offered support by a relationships charity.

Canadian police in Toronto said the parent company of the website, Avid Life Media, is offering the reward following “enormous social and economic fallout”. Its class-action status “still needs to be certified by the court”, the statement says.

The Ashley Madison hack is “one of the largest data breaches in the world” and has triggered spinoff extortion crimes and unconfirmed reports of suicides, Toronto police said Monday.

The plaintiff is Eliot Shore, an Ottawa widower. “Especially on a lame ass website”, she said. Many members were part of the site since 2012.

A $578 million lawsuit was filed in Canada last week, PC Mag reported. The security expert’s investigation and clues such as retweets and rock music references led him to believe if Zu is not a white hat security researcher or confidential informant who has infiltrated Impact Team, then “he certainly knows” who was involved in the hack.

Last week’s leak included name, address and credit card details, as well as the sexual preferences of customers. On Tuesday, the information was posted publicly online.

A review of the leaked emails by investigative reporter Brian Krebs has uncovered an exchange suggesting a former company executive hacked another dating website before siphoning off their entire user database. It is also believed that the Sony hack from 2014 was an inside job given the nature of information released.

The complainants still seek to maintain their anonymity behind the Doe pseudonym after hackers dumped nearly 10 gigabytes of data on the Internet, providing information on users including e-mail addresses.

The breach, according to the lawsuit, made public “extremely personal and embarrassing information”.

The hackers said they attacked Ashley Madison after the site collected $19 from users to erase their data, but failed to do so.
