Video Streaming Service Vudu Reports Stolen Customer Information; Change Your Passwords Now

Video streaming service Vudu (popular on many set top boxes) just reported that they had a break-in on March 24th, and a number of hard drives were stolen containing user information.

Vudu says the drives contained "names, email addresses, postal addresses, phone numbers, account activity, dates of birth and the last four digits of some credit card numbers." They say the drives didn't contain any full credit card numbers, but they did contain some encrypted passwords. Vudu has reset all user passwords, and you'll have to change them now. You also may have to deal with some spam, since email and postal addresses were stolen. Hit the link to read more about what happened, and as always, make sure you have a strong password to avoid a compromised account.
