Square Enix Members Service Hacked

December 14, 2011 by Elizabeth DeLoria

Uh oh! Looks like Square Enix has been hacked!

Uh oh! Looks like Square Enix has been hacked!

“We have reason to believe that unknown parties may have gained unauthorised access to a particular Square Enix server related to the free SQUARE ENIX MEMBERS service offered in North America and Japan. In response, Square Enix, Inc. has temporarily suspended operation of the SQUARE ENIX MEMBERS service starting at 10PM (PST) on December 12, 2011” the official statement reads.

There’s no need to freak out, though, as no credit card information has been taken. “We are assessing the full extent of this potential breach to determine what data, if any, was compromised and will provide more details as soon as possible. While some personal information may have been accessed, we can confirm that there is no possibility of any credit card information leak from this incident, since the server in question stores no credit card information.”

“We estimate that the suspension will continue for a few days until we complete our investigation and counter-measures. We will update you as we learn more.”

That was a close one, huh? After scares with the PSN and more recently, Steam, we can only hope this is the most trouble Square Enix will have.
