At the same time, the press service of Mach, in a comment to the Russian mass media, called the information about the data leak a fake and assured that the database is reliably protected. In his message, Titusko25357 writes that he is selling a "full database dump" of 46,203,590 lines from the Russian national messenger Mach.
According to journalists, as evidence, he published a fragment of a dump with names, surnames, phone numbers and IDs of users on the "State Services" portal, and also stated that he had access to the messenger's internal tools, such as the Salesforce CRM system. At the same time, the Russian mass media noted that a couple of days ago the VK company, which created the Mach messenger, reported 45 million users.
The Mach platform, created to replace WhatsApp, banned by the Russian authorities, is positioned in Russia as a "national messenger". Mach is modeled after the Chinese WeChat. The President of the Russian Federation, Vladimir Putin, stated that all state services should be transferred to this platform. It integrates with government services, payment services, supports electronic signature and digital ID.
