Anonymous Leaked A Massive List Of Passwords And Credit Card Numbers

 

http://techcrunch.co...kusaolp00000591

 

Including EA's.

 

Yes, I'm warning because since many people are trying to buy DA:I or something like that, be Careful!

 

I can't login on the Mobile Game The Simpsons Tapped Out too, which is powered by EA...

 

My Origin is working fine, but I heard of numerous people that can't login.

 

Cheers and best wishes!

Isn't that the one where people came forward and said it's nonsense?

 

EA officials say no database has been compromised..

 

EA says those claims are from an old hack. That one had been dealt with already and it appears a couple people haven't checked their accounts for a couple months and just NOW noticed the change.

 

I remember another user from here who had that exact issue (unauthorized FIFA 15 purchase) some time ago.

Still, it doesn't hurt to check your Origin and Credit Card/Bank Account.

 

I know maaaany people are having this issue. Even the article said, "People reported many games that they didn't buy on their library"

Thanks Mega,I just checked mine just in case and luckily it worked fine. I think with all the hacking lately you can't be too careful. I'd really wish those assholes would leave our accounts alone.

I wonder why Anonymous do that ? Because showing the average joe credential is exactly the contrary of what they're proning to be. Also how does it work ? Some 15 years old  hack some website and pretend to be an ''anonymous member'' ?

 

How does showing thousand of credential is working for the people and working against corporation with bad ethics ?   Is there some 15 years old anonymous member that can answer me ? Please don't hack me. You will only find that I might be addict to porn ! ( Oops.. It might hurt my digital reputation)   :lol:

 

I know that anonymous.. Or whatever.. They do somewhat ... exist .. but. Does hacking a website  and publicly showing credential of thousand of student with loan make you a man of the people ?

 

BAHHH.

What I wonder, why don't people use the login verification on Origin? It's free and no matter how many times some turd hacks into your account, if they don't get the verification codes they send you (either per email or phone (phone presumably the more secure option because it's harder to breach)) they sit on a useless hijacked account, horay. And all it takes you to get it back is log in, punch in the verification code and change the password.

 

 

If you activate the log in protection, they ask you for the verification code every time you log in. Otherwise, no deal. You CAN tell Origin to recognize your PC as authorized PC so it won't ask for the code every single time, so even without the verification code, hackers would have to hijack your PC remotely to access any breached account.

 

Seriously people, if you haven't activated it yet, do it.

I think it just lazyness. Or us internet junkie tend to have a lot of password( and just tired of adding new **** to my already complicated password mess). If you could see my password notebook you would fall on your ass :P. Although I don't use most of them anymore lol.

Part of me sees these apps that track all of your logins and passwords and thinks "man, that would be super convenient" but...

 

...then I think "yeah, that will also be super convenient for a hacker, too."

Integrity is not a prerequisite to a career in hacking

Which is why I don't understand how they get advertised...

 

Hell, those programs could even be created by hackers!

 

But I think that's just me being paranoid...

 

Maybe...

Lizard Squad needs to relax.

Anonymous isn't the force it used to be, but I can't buy the idea that this is their work.

Sucks to be one of the people caught in the crossfire though.

Maybe because I don't want flipping Microsoft and flipping EA and flipping whoever else to have my phone number.

 

Privacy versus security...I think there was a game about this a few months ago.

 

The authorized PC bit I can understand (Steam does it automatically, which I'm fine with), but not asking for my phone number.

I much rather give EA my phone number for security purposes (if you'd allow them to use or share the number for anything else, they'd have to tell you otherwise), than lose access to an account with now over 250$ games' worth.

 

You can also have them use an email instead of your phone if you absolutely don't want to give them your number, but that isn't quite as secure as email accounts can be breached more easily than a phone.

 

 

The point is:

EA has a free secondary level of account security readily available for everyone who wants it. If people still get hacked, they should look at themselves for not using what's available. You can't make those stupid hackers stop, but you can make it harder for them. And if you decide not to and get hacked, well ...

If EA (or any "malevolent" company) really wanted to get your phone number, they would have it already.

 

You'd be surprised at how many corporations/institutions/crazy stalkers already have it.

A lot of applications have started using two step verification. It is a benefit

I feel like this is much better than forcing people to change their passwords every X amount of days or having a password that requires ever-more complex amounts of upper case, special characters, Egyptian hieroglyphs and numbers to beef up the password strength.

I'll agree with your "point," if that actually prevents hacking. Has it been proven to?
