This is the best summary I could come up with:

Hackers claiming to have access to the names, photos, birth details, and ethnicities of potentially millions of 23andMe customers are peddling the information on the dark web for thousands of dollars.

“The preliminary results of this investigation suggest that the login credentials used in these access attempts may have been gathered by a threat actor from data leaked during incidents involving other online platforms where users have recycled login credentials,” a spokesperson for the company told Insider.

In other words, the hackers plugged in leaked username-password combinations into 23andMe accounts in a technique known as “credential stuffing.”

One anonymous seller advertised the data on BreachForums earlier this week as containing “DNA profiles of millions, ranging from the world’s top business magnates to dynasties often whispered about in conspiracy theories,” and noted that each set of data also came with “corresponding email addresses,” based on a repost of the ad on X.

Based on the results of its preliminary investigation, the company believes the hackers gained access to a much smaller number of user accounts, but managed to scrape the data of several other 23andMe users through a feature called DNA Relatives.

There may also be “hundreds of thousands of users of Chinese descent” impacted by the leak," Wired reported.
