GAME’s website hacked, 200 email addresses and passwords put online

UK retailer GAME has seen its website hacked, with more than 200 email address and passwords affected by the breach.

Another retailer, Catalyst-Gaming from Northern Tasmania, has also been affected. Its usernames, email addresses and hashed passwords were all grabbed, but the attack on GAME saw the disclosure of email addresses and clear-text passwords.

VG247′s seen a list of those affected from the GAME hack, but aren’t linking to said list.

We’ve been told a statement is currently being prepared and “signed off by GAME.”
