CStafford14 Posted September 17, 2019 Share Posted September 17, 2019 (edited) PLEASE NOTE: This is NOT a question. Also, I am not a Minehut staff member. Remember that staff members will never ask for your password, and that the developers are working to keep your account secure. ALSO NOTE: EVERY Minehut account has been effected by the breach. This was a system-wide breach. So, what happened? On September 17, 2019, a data breach for Minehut has been announced by Have I been Pwned. Those who use a similar service should have received an email about the breach. According to Have I been Pwned, only email addresses have been breached. However, we can not be sure that password weren't effected. Try with these steps to secure your account: Change your password Make a strong, unique password Stop using the same password Start using a password manager like LastPass Even if you do not use your account anymore, reset your password for your safety. For more information, please view a report summary on Firefox Monitor. Edited September 17, 2019 by CStafford14 Added a notice that all accounts are affected and a more clarified title.

crewly Posted September 17, 2019 Share Posted September 17, 2019 (edited) personally, I don't like posts like these posted by people who aren't staff but trust me, only your email is leaked. Someone gave me the list of leaked minehut emails from the breach and I can assure you that password isn't included in the breach. And no, I didn't take part of this data breach in any shape or form.

pyunbiwi Posted September 17, 2019 Share Posted September 17, 2019 Crewly is right, only emails were breached -- there's really nothing to worry about, unless, you feel like someone could easily guess your password, in which case I would recommend changing it.

Criticyl Posted September 17, 2019 Share Posted September 17, 2019 Just to reassure everyone, there has not been any recent data breach. This specific information was the breach back in May. -------------------------------------------------------------[VIP] - 2018/2019 [JR.MOD] - 28th April 2019[SR.MOD] - 21st June 2019 [LEGEND] - 28th July 2020 (Resigned) ------------------------------------------------------------- Discord - Criticyl#0002 IGN - Criticyl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
