A huge Neopets hack has potentially compromised tens of millions of accounts, as revealed earlier this week.
As reported by Polygon, more than 69 million Neopets accounts may have had their customer data stolen in a major data breach. A Neopets representative confirmed through Discord that the company is “actively working” on fixing the issue, and later on the official forum and Twitter released a statement addressing the breach.
“Neopets recently became aware that customer data may have been stolen,” reads the first tweet. “We immediately launched an investigation assisted by a leading forensics firm. We are also engaging law enforcement and enhancing the protections for our systems and our user data.”
