How can I use a scrapper to test leaked account data bases on different websites

Hi Moxie,

afaik scrappers are used to actually "scrape" information from a website to for instance build a large content db on your own or query only specific information from a html page.
For your goal I would naively go with a list of the accounts and a list of the targeted websites (or use some alexa list) and then start to automatically "try" the logins and "parse" the responses. Probably thats the place where the scraper steps in :D
to actually find the login fields and parse the responses. As described, in the last part the scrapper is probably used exactly for that.

Best

python with beautifullsoup is also usefull to build something like this with. but every site is different, so it won;t be a solution that fits all site without extra work

there can be a trick about rendering type of website. so the best way is using headless browser to support 100%.
