Exclamation Hacked! Really Important!!

Ok, I am not a PSN user but for those who are, IGN and Playstation have reported that PSN has been hacked really bad. They are announcing steps to take because most likely, almost for sure, that the hacking group has ALL vital player information such as Credit Cards. Go check that and hopefully you or those that you may know won't get affected more than what you already have.

Watched a video of a guy making fun of the kid who actually managed to bring down the network. That's someone who is going to be fined all of his rum.

People say that a kid brought down the network, but Sony hasn't officially said who did it.
But now I am glad I didn't enter my credit card when I started my PSN account.

Who knows? Maybe PSN hacked it in the first place.

It's the secret fund for the PS4!!!! It's a conspiracy!

This is the reason I only play PC games, you don't need a "network" to use multiplayer.

Let's get it straight that the hacker(s) have access to personal data and info, there hasn't been anything that has said if they have actually TAKEN the information. If it's being hacked for the credit card info, then whoever is doing it is a complete idiot, cause he isn't going to get away with it. The hacker may just be doing it to prove that it can be done.

Who knows it could be a hoax and yes I can agree with Jakers that it could be just a test to make the game stronger. If its the other way around, better contact your bank to lock that card number!!

It's not a hoax. A lawsuit was presented today for the damages that this has created.

My friends were talking about this at school. They blamed me for hacking it just because I bought a game from PSN on my psp weeks before this.

If I got my facts in order, the people who hacked PSN are a group calling themselves Anoymous, who were angry at Sony for their "Security Update". They even SAID a few days before, if Sony didn't meet their demands, they WERE going to bring down PSN. I highly doubt they are stealing personal info, because this attack was aimed at Sony. Not the consumers...

Are they also trying to make Sony drop the case featuring the MW2 Lobby Hacker?
