Choze Posted January 16, 2012 Posted January 16, 2012 (edited) I posted here: http://www.n-europeforums.com/showthread.php?t=33485 http://www.computerandvideogames.com/332334/game-website-hacked-passwords-obtained-report/ http://news.softpedia.com/news/Catalyst-Gaming-and-Game-Co-Uk-Hacked-Data-Leaked-246709.shtml http://www.mcvuk.com/news/read/game-hacked/089809 Update: edit: seems like its being misreported. A small number of accounts are compromised as you can see here: http://pastebin.com/Uj3ZTJWp and passwords are indeed hashed. Journalism lol. Is all i can say right now. I found the dump via google news via spong of all places... Edited January 16, 2012 by Choze UPDATE: GAME NOT hacked
Rummy Posted January 16, 2012 Posted January 16, 2012 Tbh it isn't all that bad a thing, I can't for the life of me remember my password so this'd do me a favour!
david.dakota Posted January 16, 2012 Posted January 16, 2012 Its worth mentioning that GAME have denied this allegation.
darksnowman Posted January 17, 2012 Posted January 17, 2012 So should I change my password or not?! *dashes off to see what the members of the anon group have been buying off his account* Its worth mentioning that GAME have denied this allegation. Would they come out and confirm it though?
david.dakota Posted January 18, 2012 Posted January 18, 2012 Would they come out and confirm it though? You mean, would they do a Sony?
EEVILMURRAY Posted January 19, 2012 Posted January 19, 2012 I got an email from videogamesplus.ca mentioning they had a similar security issue.
Mandalore Posted January 19, 2012 Posted January 19, 2012 What's to stop my new password being hacked again if I change it? I'd rather these online shops just let me delete my account.
