[serious]Redditors who were on Ashley Maddison who's details got leaked, what happened after?

1. Heh I signed up for research in a psy class back in college, forgot about the account, thanks to the settlement I apparently qualify for about $19 of the settlement according to the radio so I guess thanks hackers :D I can get a .... couple of coffees. The only effect? I got some weird blackmail emails demanding bit coins else they'd contact everyone I know with the details for awhile. I laughed, deleted the email and the threats eventually dried up.

3. My email was on there, but it was linked to the person who keeps fucking up putting his own email into services (we have the same name, he keeps forgetting his initial). He is a "Microsoft Professional", which is funny. Anyway, it pops up on my "haveibeenpwned" alert - and I see it and considering I also have emails from this fool's wife and mother in my inbox (because they apparently cant type either) I realise I am sitting on some horribly private info. I would never do anything, I don't want to screw up this guy's life but it is a lesson for people. **Check your signup forms** - I know a ridiculous amount of stuff about this guy's private life because he doesn't pay attention to signup forms. There is a bunch of services he's signed up to with the wrong email that I could 'recover', and just learn a heap about him - in terms of OpSec it is a veritable goldmine for someone who wants to be malicious. As for the AM stuff, it's sad, really.

4. My email was on there despite never having had anything to do with the site. Either a friend put mine on a while back because they thought it was funny or they made up a load of it for publicity
