Until some of the bigger news site report on this and it's confirmed by Google, I'd wait.

 

Also, please don't use the "email checker" sites, phishing at its finest.

agreed the email checkers are not to be trusted.

 

But the "BIG" news sites tell you what they want to tell you, not what you need to know :)

 

a password change is good practice in any case.

The database is three years old and largely outdated, if your password was in it they'd probably have used it by now.
