Account Security Notification #2

This is an update to the other sticky about account security breach.

I'm still working on the issue. Please be aware that not all accounts are stolen. However, all L33t and Ub3r did get an email about the compromise. That does not mean your account was stolen. It's a notification that you need to add Gauth and change your password.

I will be outlining a plan tomorrow afternoon with the steps I'm taking to heighten account security to another level. Until I'm ready to implement I cannot disclose the plan.

A couple important things.

1. Make sure you do not use your HF password on any other site.
2. If you have Gauth already enabled you do not need to reset it.
3. If you are an upgraded member I strongly advise you do a password change.
4. Zero accounts with Gauth/2FA enabled have been stolen.

We will continue this tomorrow.

Thank you.
