Here we are again with news that hackers have struck at a games publisher. This time it's Sega's turn to be hit, with the Sega Pass forums' database being accessed by unathorized intruders.
Sega uses external payment providers for all its premium services, so users' payment details were not at risk from this intrusion. Sega has reset all passwords and recommended anyone who uses the same or similar login information on other sites to change it immediately. The company also recommends users do not attempt to log in to the forums until it has sent out an all-clear notification.
LulzSec doesn't appear to be involved at this time, as they're too busy still gloating over the 62,000 user IDs and passwords that they "acquired">earlier in the week.
