As I've stated several times, my site doesn't store any details like these, it uses OpenInviter, they authenticate the credentials, pull back the list of contacts, I process the list of contacts and check it against the database of EXISTING hacked email addresses. The credentials you supply and the email addresses I pull back are NOT stored anywhere.
Secondly, just to reiterate, I am not the original perpetrator of the hack. If you do as I've said below, and as a comment on the original post and check my blog and twitter account, you'll see that I am a respected member of the development community, a family man and the CTO of a development company. So please get your facts straight before accusing me of anything.

Ha, I can guarantee you it's not even close to being a trap. Look at my blog, twitter feed anything, most certainly isn't a trap. The login box is for finding your people in your contact list that have been compromised and uses OpenInviter to return the list. If you want to see if you have been compromised then simply do a search in the search box below the login box, no need to enter details if you don't want to.

as much as I'm sure it's not a trap it's still a pretty bad practice. In theory your site could also get hacked and people could start collecting new usernames and emails not in the database.

The main reason I added the contacts list functionality is I noticed Lulzsec recently posted a database dump of 25,000 users they preened from pron.com. I thought it would be humorous to know which of your contact had been busted looking at porn... ;)
