Dear Utnac,

Our Epic Games web sites and forums were recently hacked. *After some downtime, they're back up and running now.

The hackers may have obtained the email addresses and encrypted passwords of forum users. Plaintext passwords weren't revealed, but it's possible that those passwords could be obtained by a brute-force attack on the encrypted passwords. Therefore, we have reset all passwords. *Your new password at the bottom of this message.

The Unreal Developer Network (UDN) hasn't been compromised. *Thankfully, none of our web sites ask for, or store, credit card information or other financial data.

We're sorry for the inconvenience, and appreciate everyone's patience as we wrestle our servers back under control.

Whats a government controlled net gonna do? :confused: That sounds a little bit tinfoil hat.

Security for games companies really is getting shown up lately.
 
I got an email through last night but I just took it as spam to be honest. I could not find anything at that time on the UT3 forums but maybe there is a little truth in it ?!? :confused:
 
Beyond a joke. They need to start cross referencing all these attacks, probably the same culprits and same 0-day exploits used for each.

I guess DICE/Steam/Activision are next.
