Paidwork breach leak exposes data tied to about 23 million gig-work platform accounts

Paidwork users’ personal and financial data was reportedly stolen and leaked online after a claimed March 2026 breach. Have I Been Pwned says the leaked 11 GB database contains 23.3 million unique email addresses, along with names, password hashes, physical addresses, dates of birth, phone numbers, bank account numbers, financial transactions, and profile data. The platform is used for small paid online jobs.
Why it matters: This exposes a large number of users to account takeovers, fraud, and identity theft, especially because the leak includes password hashes and banking details. Paidwork users should reset passwords anywhere reused, watch bank accounts for suspicious activity, and be alert for phishing or impersonation attempts.
