Even if blockcheckers worked, they STILL would NOT need your password!!!!
Think about it, what would they be able to do more with your login and password that you already can't when you log in in your Messenger? Nothing!!!!
A login, and certainly a password, is NOT needed AT ALL. No matter what those sites may claim, no matter if blockcheckers actually work or not.
If they ask for your login, they most likely use this to sell the email to spammers.
If they ask for you password also, they most likely use this to break into your account.
As simple as that.

It is like saying that they need your social security number and bank/visa account in order to calculate how much you need to pay at the cash register when you bought some apples. lol...
I think the sticky of block checkers do not work should be translated (something very important) and posted on ALL sites IMO.
