Incredible timing :) We obtained a corpus related to this breach this morning and have been processing it today. 
Notifications are going out over the next 30 minutes to potentially impacted institutions for which we have contacts.

Hi,

I think I’m starting to see some credential testing against our student accounts that were a part of the Mathway data 
breach earlier this year and I was wondering if anyone has found a searchable dataset for what was released.  I know 
how many of our accounts were included in the dump but I haven’t found the data to identify them by name so I can 
proactively have them change their password and I’d love to be able to do that. Thanks.
