13 Million Accounts of MapleStory Exposed

MapleStory

Watch out your account. The famously hacked Sony has a sympathetic shoulder this week, as Nexon recently discovered a massive breach that's exposed over 13 million MapleStory player accounts to cyber ne'er-do-wells. Discovered this past Thursday, the breach was solely limited to South Korea, as Nexon hosts separate countries on their own servers. It's not simply the problem of getting unsafe powerleveling service, or the black Maplestory mesos. Even if you want to get the safe Maple products, check out on http://www.swagvault.com/maple-story/us/gold/1216 or http://www.swagvault.com/maple-story/us/leveling/1216. People who have experienced SwagVault service will understand why I will suggest swagvault.com to you. Yes, choose SwagVault, choose safe!

This means that any South Korean MapleStory player's information is at risk, including user IDs, names, passwords, and residential registration numbers. This information could potentially be stolen and used for a variety of crimes. Yes, it's indeed horrible for every one.

While there's been no word whether actual personal information has been stolen, Nexon nevertheless urged these 13+ million subscribers to change their passwords. The company has contacted the police to ask for a formal investigation.

This comes at an unfortunate time for the company, as Nexon is poised to present its IPO on the Tokyo Stock Exchange in December.
