Spotify Hacked Again

Thursday, March 5th, 2009

spotify_logo-150x1501Since its full launch less than a year ago, Sportify has had its share of intruders. Only this time it’s not about illegal audio-file downloads or spyware to remove advertisements. This time the users, over 1 million member-base, are been directly threatened.

Stolen Passwords

On March 5th 2009 news sources reported that Spotify yet again had become the victim of “hackers” who this time got access to a large number of user passwords and personal information. In a statement to the papers, Spotify spokesperson spoke to all Spotify users, strongly recommending that if the same password is used elsewhere, it should be changed directly. This to avoid the “hackers” accessing your email account or even worse, accounts where your credit cards info is registered.
