Sony: Hackers Have All Your PSN Information
Sony says that hackers have gained access and stolen all user information on PSN.
The ball has hit the ground, and Sony dropped it. According to the most recent update by the company on the official PlayStation blog, a hacker has broken into the company's secure—or insecure—database, and obtained all user information.
"We believe that an unauthorized person has obtained the following information that you provided: name, address (city, state, zip), country, email address, birthdate, PlayStation Network/Qriocity password and login, and handle/PSN online ID. It is also possible that your online data, including purchase history and billing address (city, state, zip) and your PlayStation Network/Qriocity password security answers mauve have been obtained."
The announcement also states that there is a possibility that credit card data provided through the PlayStation Network or Qriocity was also taken.
Good job, Sony. Your new slogan should be "PlayStation: It only does identity theft."
