Tech Tips: Check if your phone number or email ID is involved in any data leak...

Data leak is not a big deal today. Every day, the data of many social media sites is being breached. Later, this data is sold on the dark web and then this data is used for wrong purposes. Your data is used to trap you.

If you are using a smartphone, then there is every possibility that your data would have been leaked, although you can also check it. If you have a doubt or want to check whether your email ID is involved in any data leak or not, then visit haveibeenpwned.com. Now a page will open in front of you on which it will be written 'Have I been pwned?'. Now enter your Gmail ID in the search bar below it and press the pwned button.

In a few seconds, it will be visible on your desktop screen whether your email ID has been leaked or not. If your ID has been leaked, the entire screen will turn red. Otherwise, it will appear in front of you that "Good news - no pwnage found!" You can also check your phone number on this site to see if it is involved in any data leak or not.
