As reported by Polygon, the data breach was first reported by community site JellyNeo on July 20, with the official Neopets Twitter subsequently posting an announcement and warning that recommends users change their password on Neopets and any other website where the same login information is used.
Virtual pet creation website Neopets has been hacked, potentially compromising up to 69 million accounts.
“It appears that email addresses and passwords used to access Neopets accounts may have been affected.”
“Neopets recently became aware that customer data may have been stolen,” the post said.
