Over the weekend, Kickstarter announced that it has been hacked, and private customer information on Wednesday night had been accessed.
The company says that no credit card information was accessed by hackers, but is advising all users of the service to reset their password immediately and ensure that any other accounts that use the same password be changed as soon as possible.
Other personal information including email addresses, mailing addresses, phone numbers and encrypted passwords were compromised in the attack.
Kickstarter has “since improved our security procedures and systems in numerous ways and is working closely with law enforcement.”
