Change your account password, if you have one.

Why does UPlay exist? I only joined it because I own far cry 3.

 

EDIT: here is a direct link to the password reset system ubisoft has temporarily put in place: https://secure.ubi.com/register/ForgotPwd.aspx?genomeId=5b61fa9f-305b-422b-aa3a-0efcf8370dec〈=en-UK&nexturl=http://www.uplay.com

Yep, here is the email:

 

 

Dear Member, 

We recently found that one of our Web sites was exploited to gain unauthorised access to some of our online systems. We instantly took steps to close off this access, investigate the incident and begin restoring the integrity of any compromised systems. 

During this process, we learned that data had been illegally accessed from our account database, including user names, email addresses and encrypted passwords. Please note that no personal payment information is stored with Ubisoft, meaning your debit/credit card information was safe from this intrusion. 

As a result, we are recommending that you change the password for your account: [snip]

To enter your new password, click the link below: [snip]

Out of an abundance of caution, we also recommend that you change your password on any other Web site or service where you use the same or a similar password.  

You can find more information here https://support.ubi.com/en-GB/FAQ.aspx?platformid=60&brandid=2030&productid=3888&faqid=kA030000000eYYxCAM. 

For any additional support enquiries, please contact our customer service via our support web site at https://support.ubi.com 

We sincerely apologise to all of you for the inconvenience. Please rest assured that your security remains our priority.

Guys, on the off chance that you are clicking on a Spam email, go direct to support.ubi.com and log in, it will automatically ask you to change your password and confirm your email.

 

P.S: These morons should not have our details tbh, wish they did not force is to create accounts and use them
