Hacked: If You’re a Time Warner Customer, You May Need to Change Your Password

From the Augusta Police Department this morning:

Time Warner Cable has announced that as many as 320,000 customers may have had their email addresses and passwords exposed. It has been reported that Time Warner was informed by the FBI about the situation and that the FBI was also contacting other internet service providers that had been affected, so announcements from other email service providers may follow.

Of particular concern are Time Warner customers who have an email address via the Roadrunner service and whose address ends “@rr.com.”

These customers will be contacted by the company with information about resetting their passwords.
If you have used the same password to access other accounts or to transact banking business via the internet, PLEASE CHANGE THOSE PASSWORDS IMMEDIATELY.
