1.5 Million Facebook Accounts being sold by Russian hacker

Oh god, somebody broke the Internets again - and now its our job to find out what happened. Well this time its a slobby hacker who calls himself Kirllos, and he has hacked 1.5 Million Facebook accounts. So what does this mean? Well, If you were to line up 300 Facebook users in a row, 1 of them would have been hacked, and there account to be sold for 25-45 dollars, per thousand - More info after the break! 

This is not somebody who does this as a hobby, he has hacked and sold 100,000 accounts from around the world, and this time he has hit the jackpot. He again, has hacked one-point-five million accounts and he is planning to sell them in bundles of 1000 for $25 (Under 10 friends) and $45 (more than 10 friends) which is an astonishingly low price. Typically this info would be sold for 1 - 20 dollars per account, but this guy is not in it for the money, he just wants to watch our social networks burn.

Who is this Hacker Extraordinare?

According to some Antichat.ru forum users, he was born in Russia, lives in New Zealand, is 24 years old and speaks both English and French. No other info is known besides the fact his nickname is Kirllos and he is probably reading this post, and every other, laughing at the reaction to his madness. He can only make an ideal $60,000 dollar profit from this scam, but again, he doesn’t care about that.
