Hackers Compromise The War Z Forum, Game Databases

Hackers compromised the forum and game database of the massively multiplayer online game, The War Z, forcing the game s producer OP Productions to temporarily take the game and its forum offline. According to the alert, hackers accessed and may have exposed the players email addresses and encrypted passwords used to login to the game. The company assured users their names and addresses are not collected and therefore were not exposed (unless gamers posted that information of the forum). They are still investigating whether further information was exposed.
