CEX Data Stolen

dudeeile · 2017-08-31 15:39:58

Data of up to two million customers has been stolen from games store Cex. Story here. It got mentioned here yesterday but our usual consumer warriors have not bothered to let the general pop know, not enough of a trolling opportunity I guess. CEX statement and details here.

People have been known to use the same password across multiple sites :eek: so it's better to be safe than sorry.
