Clash of Clans Forums Accounts Have Been Hacked

Posted on January 19, 2017 by Dissent

Costea Lestoc reports:

It seems that Supercell, the creator of Clash of Clans, has suffered a major security breach. It has been revealed that the company has revealed that during an attack on its member forums, over a million user accounts were compromised.

In other words, some hackers have now over a million accounts usernames, email addresses, IP addresses, hashed passwords etc. Supercell has confirmed this, but it has mentioned that this happened back in September 2016 and it had urged the users to change their passwords as soon as possible. However, the Clash of Clans developer said that the issue has been fixed.
