Tumblr also responded to the hack by sending some users an email warning them to take precautions
"This has potentially exposed records of subject lines and, in some cases, email addresses of messages sent to Tumblr Support.
The company said while this information may be "innocuous," users should still review any correspondence it had with Tumblr via email and beware of any emails claiming to be from Tumblr requesting a password.
"Tumblr will never ask you for your password by email. Emails are easy to fake, and you should be suspicious of unexpected emails you receive," the company said.
This is critical, as phishing emails are a common way cybercriminals trick people into sharing personal information.
Pinterest sent affected users a similar email, also cautioning them not to respond to suspicious email claiming to be from Pinterest, according to a Wired report.
