Zappos got hacked, change your passwords
Change your passwords if you have Zappos. It was just on the news that they were hacked. Also they said that they sent our emails to change passwords, but I NEVER GOT THAT. So....I changed my password after seeing the news and removed my CC info (too late already I assume).
So....just a FYI!!!

Re: Zappos got hacked, change your passwords
Same with 6pm.com, which is owned by Zappo's. I received the following email from them last night:
First, the bad news:
We are writing to let you know that there may have been illegal and unauthorized access to some of your customer account information on 6pm.com, including one or more of the following: your name, e-mail address, billing and shipping addresses, phone number, the last four digits of your credit card number (the standard information you find on receipts), and/or your cryptographically scrambled password (but not your actual password).
THE BETTER NEWS:
The database that stores your critical credit card and other payment data was NOT affected or accessed.
SECURITY PRECAUTIONS:
For your protection and to prevent unauthorized access, we have expired and reset your password so you can create a new password. Please follow the instructions below to create a new password.
We also recommend that you change your password on any other web site where you use the same or a similar password. As always, please remember that 6pm.com will never ask you for personal or account information in an e-mail. Please exercise caution if you receive any emails or phone calls that ask for personal information or direct you to a web site where you are asked to provide personal information.
PLEASE CREATE A NEW PASSWORD:
We have expired and reset your password so you can create a new password. Please create a new password by visiting 6pm.com and clicking on the "Create a New Password" link in the upper right corner of the web site and follow the steps from there.
We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience this may cause. If you have any additional questions about this process, please email us at [email protected].

We also recommend that you change your password on any other web site where you use the same or a similar password.
If you use the same passwords on other sites you might want to change them too!!
