This is old style scamming. Hieu Ngo was basically fraudently buying personal data in bulk and selling it on as a supplier to criminals for "only" a couple of million bucks.

Fast forward a decade and its way more sophisticated - we are talking organized crime, AI, billions of dollars.

A simple thing anyone can do if a website is seeking data from you and you are not sure about it is to check the veracity of the site using a free open-access tool developed bu Hieu Ngo. It can give you an instant response
