Twitch
We are writing to let you know that there may have been unauthorized access to some of your Twitch user account information, including possibly your Twitch username and associated email address, your password (which was cryptographically protected), the last IP address you logged in from, and any of the following if you provided it to us: first and last name, phone number, address, and date of birth.
For your protection, we have expired your password and stream keys. In addition, if you had connected your account to Twitter or YouTube, we have terminated this connection.
You will be prompted to create a new password the next time you attempt to log into your Twitch account. If applicable, you will also need to re-connect your account to Twitter and YouTube, and re-authenticate through Facebook, once you change your password. We also recommend that you change your password at any other website where you use the same or a similar password.
We apologize for this inconvenience.

For those of you that use Twitch, I received this message this morning. If you didn't get it I'd go ahead and change your password any ways.

Re: Twitch Hacked
Thanks for the share, Shrap.
Please remind me who's handling the GC Twitch account? Hopefully they've already reset the password.

Re: Twitch Hacked
I was wondering some days ago why I got to the password reset form everytime I logged in, and why all my logged in sessions where invalid. So yeah, they force you to go through the password reset procedure.InsanityRocks wrote:Thanks for the share, Shrap.

Re: Twitch Hacked
My password for the GC account is gone. Can't seem to find it. I did an actual password reset so the mailbox associated with the account should have received a password reset. The password reset twitch did comes only after you logging with your old credentials. Hopefully my reset didn't messed up things.InsanityRocks wrote:Thanks for the share, Shrap.

*EDIT* Actually, I don't think I ever had it. I only had the stream key. Fields should know it.
