"I'm writing to apologize for the shortcomings in our Epic Games store implementation and our Uplay integration.
In the past 48 hours, the rate of fraudulent transactions on Division 2 surpassed 70% and was approaching 90%. Sophisticated hackers were creating Epic accounts, buying Ubisoft games with stolen credit cards, and then selling the linked Uplay accounts faster than we were disabling linked Uplay purchases for fraud.
To stop the fraud, we disabled purchasing of Ubisoft games.
The fault in this situation is entirely Epic's, and all of the minimum revenue guarantees remain in place to ensure our performance."
Full apology is at the link.
