There's an ongoing attack on FaucetBOX.com accounts that uses emails and passwords from Nulled leak:

Quote

Nulled: In May 2016, the cracking community forum known as Nulled was hacked and 599k user accounts were leaked publicly. The compromised data included email and IP addresses, weak salted MD5 password hashes and hundreds of thousands of private messages between members.

Compromised data: Dates of birth, Email addresses, IP addresses, Passwords, Private messages, Usernames, Website activity

It's possible that data from other leaks is used too.

We do what we can to minimize the risk, but the attack comes from many different IP networks (we assume it's a botnet), so if you have the same password on FaucetBOX.com and on other sites, you should change it as soon as possible.
Also: enable MFA!

You can check if your email and password was leaked here: https://haveibeenpwned.com/ .

To clarify, FaucetBOX.com emails and passwords weren't leaked. Emails and passwords from leaks from other sites and services are used to hack into FaucetBOX.com accounts. If you use unique password for your FaucetBOX.com account you're safe.
