Reports are surfacing that the Windows Live Hotmail service has been subject to a hack or phishing scheme, which has led to the information from 10,000 user accounts to be posted onto the pastebin.com website early last week.
Microsoft said it had “been made aware of the claims that Windows Live IDs and passwords have been made available on the web”.
Guess it’s time for everyone to change their passwords, and remember that security is always a pressing concern.
