The Main Point came when the public found some strangers are dropping messages in a group chat of kids.

Does the question arise how the phone number of the user gets exposed?

According to the News statement, it was about 419 million data leaked in 2019. The accounts linked with Facebook account IDs were found unprotected by any password. This was clear at that time that the people looking for such things could find all the access to the database.

There are almost 133 million records of users that are leaked. It was around 18 million records of the UK users and 50 million records from Vietnam.

The data leaked that was included with Facebook Unique ID and Phone Number that was listed as being connected to that account.

The Facebook statement comes after that “we know we have more work to do”

when has been confirmed by this massive embarrassing data leak”

The investigating team found that the data include not only phone and Facebook Unique IDs. It also contains Gender, user’s name, and location by the country.

What is SNAFU privacy mentioned by Facebook?

This feature basically removes the ability to secure the user and no one finds their phone number. According to Facebook the older dataset which helps to find people through contact number was rolled back in the last year 2018.

The company claimed that the data set is taken down and no more compromised by the Facebook accounts.

According to the Guardian report, Facebook mentioned that the actual number of users whose information was exposed is approximately 210 m because the 419m is double the same data means duplicate data.

But some data was found also duplicate that may set that Facebook is right on his point.

Facebook is typing to minimize the exposed data of phone numbers and try to make the matter normal. 

What did the security expert tell us about the Facebook data leak?

According to the expert, they said becoming a big organization like Facebook and that it is crazy that the number of data on servers is unprotected in the 2019 era.

The main point is the Phone number is highly sensitive data of the user and that really makes sense for the organization to take care of the user data. Today the world more identity belongs to their phone number and that makes attackers find the victim easier. As usual, President Trump’s twitter account is hacked on a similar basis and no one takes it seriously.

Another expert says” It better to end up the system of online cell number options”.
