Shortly after I got a "you are on the list" email, my Tesco account got hacked; anyone else?

Was your password the same? Were you on the list with email address or mn username?

Is Jeff hungry or something? Should we tell him about the food banks?

Following as something weird happening with my tesco account this evening as well....how do you know if you've been hacked?!

Tesco had this problem again about two years ago. Their passwords were unencrypted they were all over the news... I assume nothing much has changed
Yes how did you notice?

How did you notice the tesco hack Nice?

I wasn't on the list (I don't think, happy to be corrected if I'm wrong) but someone tried to access my pocket gems forum account yesterday (had an email notifying me of 5 incorrect password attempts). Same email address as my email for here.

I assume you use the same email for both this and Tesco? Do you use the same or similar password? Maybe it's just a coincidence? Flowers
