Clash of Kings forum hacked — data leaked on 1.6M accounts

Another hack has hit a gaming community.

Cyberattackers were able to get details for 1.6 million accounts from the official forums for the mobile strategy game Clash of Kings, according to data on breach-tracking site LeakedSource (via ZDNet). The assault happened on July 14, and it was able to get email addresses, usernames, IP addresses, and Facebook data. Clash of Kings is a popular app in the $36.9 billion mobile gaming market, but these kinds of security failures could scare off that community.
