Include credit cards as another search dimension
As well as user accounts there seem to be a lot of credit cards being leaked. It would be interesting to add credit card numbers to the other search dimensions (username and email address).

This is a very serious issue. Please consider sending the results only by email at least for these most serious data breaches where there is physical risk for…
