It’s been quite the day for the Russian hacker who has reportedly stolen nearly 6.5 million LinkedIn passwords. Now, it looks like the same hacker has also compromised 1.5 million passwords from popular dating site eHarmony.
“After investigating reports of compromised passwords, we have found that a small fraction of our user base has been affected,” eHarmony wrote on its blog. “We are continuing to investigate… as a precaution, we have reset affected members passwords.”
Affected members will receive an email with details about how to reset passwords. The company also included a list of password security tips, such as changing passwords every few months and using different passwords for each Internet site.
