I'm also redirected between secure and unsecure connections and those don't share the session cookie so I end up being logged out. I don't have this problem with any other site but this one so I'm gonna assume that you have more problems than "just" a stolen database. Quote ZedLeppelin wrote: I had zero problems changing my password. If you can't manage it via your account profile, then log out, and instead of logging back in, use the "Forgotten your password?" link to reset it that way. Good luck!Are you using any sort of cookie manager by chance? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why did I have to hear about this on another site instead of receiving an email saying I should change my password??Because sending an email to 10 million people would take us about 6-12 months, and have us flagged in every SPAM database on the planet. It's likely by the time the script got around to your email being sent, you wouldn't have even received it. I was watching TheTech Guy on Twit.tv with Leo LaporteHe suggested using Mail Chimp for sending out mass emails to users (http://mailchimp.com/). The problem -- that the caller had -- Was how do they send out newsletters to multiple users (without getting flagged as a spammer)? He was using Gmail to do it. -- this might be something to take a look at if you have to email a lot of people on the site. PS: they have a free service: Up to 2,000 subscribers and 12,000 emails per monthIf you wanted to send more than that -- you could look at their pricing. However, for the purpose of emailing users to recommend a password reset -- you might be able to try the free service for emailing every once in a while Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EntropyAdept Posted December 10, 2015 Share Posted December 10, 2015 Thank you for your swift actions in both tracking down the facts and notifying your users even when the matter was still uncertain. An open and honest admission of the known facts and what you were doing and considering to address the potential breach is the best way to maintain customer confidence. I wish more companies would follow examples like yours in dealing with security breaches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
