Got a notification that cafepress.com was hacked

A lot of us use them for FSJ activities so I thought I would post up that I received a notification that their data was hacked. This includes your userid, password and country.

So watch for strange emails from them. I am going to go change my password. If you use the same password for different sites (I don't) you might change those as well.

Okay, I went to log in and on the sign in page and logged it. I got a message that 'We are changing our password policy blah blah blah". They make you click 'forget password' and then change your password. This, along with the notification, is almost a sure sign they were hacked.

If your credit card info is on file make sure you go in and change your password ASAP!

Yeah, it was reported that there was roughly 23 million accounts compromised. Whats annoying is that they waited months to go through and address the issue.

That's very annoying. It's also why I do not use the same password for any two web sites. It's a bit of a pain but it works. I got an email a while back with one of my passwords in the subject and because it was unique I knew which site they got it from.

Don't worry, they'll offer everyone complimentary identity theft protection for 6 months then pretend nothing happened; just like every other hack in the last decade.
