Uplay accounts and ubisoft compromised

[Darth Vader]

I suggest anyone with an account or who plays ubisoft games check your email and change your passwords. they just said they got hacked, the ubisoft website is down it's on ign and destructoids main page.

 

[Doctor Who]

Got an email from Ubi to click a link and change the password but rather unsure if it's legit.

 

[Darth Vader]

it is. it's from them, it's on all gaming websites also the official website is Down, and they released a statement on Neogaf

 

[Snake Plissken]

Ridiculous. I just got their email.

 

[Darth Vader]

:-/ if only programs like this and origin didn't exist then this wouldn't happen.

 

[JonD7]

Hate when this happens.

 

[Snake Plissken]

Anyone claim responsibility?

 

[Darth Vader]

worst part is I signed up with my main email not an alternate. Ahhh hopefully nothing happens w my bank.

 

[Snake Plissken]

I changed my pass for my email, about all we can do really.

 

[Privyet]

whats uplay?

 

[darthviper107]

If you buy any Ubisoft PC games it installs their uPlay program, which is like their version of Steam. It kind of sucks

 

[Stealth V3teran]

I never understand why people get their rocks off on doing this sort of thing. Most pointless thing ever

 

[Snake Plissken]

^ to stroke their internet boner I guess.

 

[Solidus]

I have two-step verification on Gmail. I'm cool, even if someone knows my password .

 

[Darth Vader]

First when PSN got hacked now this, I'm sure my information is everywhere Gahhh. Changed passwords and everything's fine now. Once ubisoft's site is back up I'm getting in touch with CS and having them delete my account

 

[JefftheCollector]

Just changed my password through an email ubisoft sent me. Luckily they had my old password for my email address. Hopefully no harm comes from this

 

[Sithlord1975]

I did it....

 

[Shropt]

I never got an email. Did this effect everyone or just some?

I would assume anyone with a Uplay account is susceptible. Act accordingly.
