Rock Paper Shotgun (RPS), a popular gaming site's server hacked. RPS is notifying their customers about the attack via email.
According to their notification, Hackers break into their server on Jan 14 and gained access to server for five days. Researchers are not sure whether hackers compromised the user details or not.
If they got to those files, they will have got customer's emails, usernames, and encrypted passwords. Though the passwords are encrypted, hackers are able to break the hash codes. So users recommends to change their passwords immediately. If you use the same password anywhere else, change the password for them also.
"We're tremendously sorry. We learned about the attack on Thursday afternoon, and the tech people at Positive closed it off immediately, and have been sorting it out since, working out what they could have found. We learned the information reported above this evening, and have told you as quickly as we can." said in their report.
