A significant portion of the customer base of streaming alert and widget provider StreamElements appears to have been impacted by a recent data breach. Sensitive user data totaling 212,358 lines has reportedly been leaked and is presently available on the dark web.

For those who don’t know, StreamElements offers widgets and notifications that let streamers communicate with their audience. It also helps them boost viewer participation and engagement and provides viewers and streamers with pertinent information about the broadcast.

Many content creators, such as Knut, TiffaJessi, iamBrandon, and Bescotti, use StreamElements, one of the most well-known streaming widget providers.

What Information Was Leaked in the Alleged StreamElements Data Breach?

The StreamElements Merch store was specifically impacted by this incident. Moreover, it is unknown if the content creators were also affected in addition to other Merch store users. The hack is large and wide-ranging because the compromised data includes personally identifiable information. It includes names, addresses, phone numbers, and email addresses.

Although the precise technique of obtaining the information is unclear, it is speculated that the organized format in which the data was stored may have facilitated the attackers’ access to it. Identity theft, financial scams, and targeted phishing attacks against impacted individuals are possible outcomes of this data release.

StreamElements has not yet publicly acknowledged or denied the data breach or its scope. It has been reported that the breach happened on March 24, 2025. The affected clients were allegedly alerted by the acting party via email, with the sender identified as the “Diddy squad.”
