Administrators and customers of a Portuguese Flash game site (mygames.pt) had their account details published in a Pastebin document as a result of a hacking operation, reports CyberWarNews.

The names of a few hundred database tables that contained user data from the site’s forum and online shop were leaked online. User IDs, usernames, and passwords, some of which in clear text, were revealed by a hacker who didn’t leave any clues to his identity.

Currently, the mygames.pt website isn’t displaying any messages to alert their users to change their passwords, especially if they’re utilized to protect other accounts as well.

Individuals who possess accounts on the aforementioned site are advised to take the necessary measures to secure their digital assets. This includes changing passwords and keeping a close look on any suspicious emails that might land in their inboxes.
