Interesting read! I'll have to mess around with this.

A good read and something I already do.

 

I feel a bit at risk that I use one password for pretty much everything but by going off their reasoning I have a very secure password. Two unrelated words and two numbers (probably shouldn't say that on a public forum). As it happens I was generated this password by Yahoo years ago.

Looks like the Information Commissioner's Office have already been in contact with Sony, according to Eurogamer:

Keep Ass (giggle)
I'm trying it now, seems ok. Don't mind it being stored somewhere online, one less thing for me to worry about. Until it's stolen and someone has a way of getting to in, which is when it becomes many more things for me to worry about. I like living life on the edge y'see.

I read today that they are saying they encrypted the CC information but not your personal info, like contact info. Who knows if they are telling the truth or not though.

One of my cards (I /think/ it's the one that I had registered with PSN, but I can't log in to check that, can I? :@ ) was declined yesterday in the supermarket - just checked and there's plenty money in there so wondering if someone's been trying to make dodgey transactions and the bank have cancelled it. On hold to the bank just now, taking ages though :@

I know, I know. Who would have thought shredding anything which would identify me personally prior to throwing away was just not enough.

 

On a more serious note it's more the inconvenience, not being able to access my cash, and knowing some scrotums have my details. Fair enough if I wasn't careful, but my methods have not failed me since having a bank account.... very suspicious.

Smile (co-op) say they are keeping track of cards registered on PSN but currently don't believe enough information was hacked to put accounts at risk and so are not cancelling any cards at the present time.

Oh dear
Report from PSX-Scene suggest that the unknown hackers even offered to sell the details back to Sony themselves with little luck before offering them up on underground credit card trading forums.

The really disturbing part of this is the news that these details actually include the CCV security code that until now was believed to be safe. With that code married to the card owner’s name as well as the rest of the card details then the card could be used without a hiccup


I would definitely be cancelling cards if I was on the Play Station Network.

If that's true then Sony need to officially notify everyone and stop lying!
