Grinding Gear Games may have been the latest victim of internet shenanigans, as Grinding Gear Games has announced that it is investigating a potential breach of the servers from March 13 to 23. The developer is unaware of any potential information theft, however has assured users that not only is payment information not stored on site, that passwords are salted and hashed, and therefore would take a long time for any hacker to crack. GGG still recommends changing your password if you’re one of the many people who use the same password to get into Path of Exile as you do for your luggage, “12345.”
We do not store any payment information like credit card numbers. It is stored at the external payment processors we use. There is no way that credit card information could have been accessed.
The information that may have been taken includes email addresses, salted and hashed passwords, recent IP addresses used to access the game and website, as well as a physical address if the person had physical goods mailed to them. As of right now, users are not being forced to change their passwords.
