Monster Hacked

Posted on Tuesday, January 27th, 2009 at 11:17am

The popular job website, Monster, has been hacked and the details of millions of people have been stolen, including the 4.5million users in the UK. If everybody is affected, it will be the biggest data theft since the details of child benefit claimants was stolen last year.

The firm have advised all their users to change their passwords and watch out for scam emails. Luckily, although details were stolen, it's thought financial details and NI numbers weren't.
