Just great

And just incase any loonies or criminals didn't yet know about the data breach...the Daily Fail has just made sure it's as widely publisised as possible....

I have no knowledge, but suspect this might be the first 'result':

They're not that on the case.... It still shows on their news page.

Looks like it's finally been stopped - I just looked and the following message appeared.

Yeah looks like the file link has been removed. The post is still on their website though. So anyone who reads it could start asking about it and get sent the file by someone who did download it.

So the file has been removed by Google as it was on a Google Drive. Give it a few hours and it will be hosted on another server.

I've got to admire the stupidity/bravery though, if I had the NCA breathing down my neck I'd be burning hard drives as we speak

Should the website that posted the data be investigated by the information commissioners office? Ultimately someone owns and runs that website...just a thought with GDPR being such a hot topic.

See my comments above, basically you need to expose your details to the website before ICO will take any action. Totally useless ! A company is illegally hacked and they will be fined, BA for example fined £20m, but someone posting the data gets away with it!

Sorry I missed your post. It seems mad that they won't pursue anyone posting live data for the world to see.

According to this is has been taken down

Not that it helps... someone else will host it, and this cycle will continue. I have just found out that all my details were in the breach. Very concerning...
