This is a very unfortunate event and it really makes you wonder how much information you can give. I never thought something wrong would happen. I recieved this email from the playstation network :
“Although we are still investigating the details of this incident,
we believe that an unauthorized person has obtained the following
information that you provided: name, address (city, state, zip), country,
email address, birthdate, PlayStation Network/Qriocity password and login,
and handle/PSN online ID. It is also possible that your profile data,
including purchase history and billing address (city, state, zip),
and your PlayStation Network/Qriocity password security answers may
have been obtained.”
This is a huge issue! The PSN network is down for security evaluation and our credit card information could be out there. Its still not 100% clear who hacked the PSN network. I dont know what to say good job (PSN shouldn’t have had venerabilities and should’ve routinely evaluated their network security) or please dont give out our info :s.
Here are some vids regarding the alleged hackers
