Sony har nu kommenterat den omfattande attacken mot Playstation Network, som ju angripits av hackare och därmed stängts ned tillfälligt av företaget. Information om användares konton - alltifrån namn, födelsedata och kreditkortsnummer - kan ha kommit i fel händer under intrånget.
Så här kommenterar Sony saken på den officiella Playstation-bloggen:
"Although we are still investigating the details of this incident, we believe that an unauthorized person has obtained the following information that you provided: name, address (city, state, zip), country, email address, birthdate, PlayStation Network/Qriocity password and login, and handle/PSN online ID.
It is also possible that your profile data, including purchase history and billing address (city, state, zip), and your PlayStation Network/Qriocity password security answers may have been obtained. If you have authorized a sub-account for your dependent, the same data with respect to your dependent may have been obtained.
While there is no evidence at this time that credit card data was taken, we cannot rule out the possibility. If you have provided your credit card data through PlayStation Network or Qriocity, out of an abundance of caution we are advising you that your credit card number (excluding security code) and expiration date may have been obtained."
Sony ber nu alla användare att vara försiktiga och kontrollera sina bankkonton så att allt är som det ska. Man tipsar om att byta lösenord på andra ställen om man använder samma där som på PSN.
