Dear chartianz...

This week I became aware that a account were opened in my name in a paypall type service using my personnal info.

It have been open since 2012. Have anyone else had suspicious actitivities under his name without doing it (not counting split personality)? Of those any suspicion about it being originated from PSN outbreak?

I had an EA origin email which stated: "your password was succesfully altered"
Since I only use my psn account to log into Origin... well.. you know..
Called EA and they investigated it.. They sended me a link to alter my account password.

edit: it seems with lizard fuckers still nerd raging the internet and pissed off russian hackers i need to change passwords for everything every other day anymore.

It happened in 2012 so not related to this week hacking. But maybe it is best to be safe.

PSN "hacking" this week was a retarded DDOS (probably just kid killing their F5 key lel).

No risk of identity theft there, just economic terrorism for wrong reasons.

Yeah, I said I wanted it taken care of, but they took things too seriously and they've thrown him into jail :P
