Bethesda is latest game company hit by hackers

[Jeffrey Walton <noloader () gmail com>]

Game developer Bethesda Softworks has become the latest victim in an
ongoing run of attacks that have left personal information exposed and
in the hands of hackers....

Hacker group Lulz Security claimed responsibility for the attack via
its Twitter account after also claiming responsibility for hacking a
porn site and exposing the email addresses and passwords of more than
25,000 members.... "While no personal financial information or credit
card data was obtained, the hackers may have gained access to some
user names, email addresses, and/or passwords. As a precaution, we
recommend that all our fans immediately change passwords on all our
sites — including our community forums and the statistics site we
maintain for Brink players."
