Adobe user accounts

Postby Rosemary » Fri Oct 04, 2013 12:39 pm

I received this notice today. I don't know if it is appropriate here but here goes!
Something to be aware of anyhow.

Security warning for those of you using Adobe software and who have purchased anything from Adobe in the past: hackers have accessed over 2 million Adobe users accounts - (several newspapers carry the info...here is one....) I'm having to cancel/reissue my prepaid credit card and change my bank (CCCU) security questions...quite the mess for a whole lot of people:

So, like their software, their records have become part of the "cloud" for all to visit I guess :evil:

If I was thinking of paying them their blood money--which I refuse to do--this would put the thought right out of my head.

I don't have Photoshop but I tend to agree with Mikey and Barbara. Other graphic program manufactures must be smiling to themselves.
