Gameloft confirms that Order & Chaos Online accounts on Facebook and mobile devices have been hacked

Posted on October 20, 2011 by Dissent

Will Wilson reports:

Gameloft has admitted to Pocket Gamer that a number of Order & Chaos Online players have had their accounts hacked, and that the company is looking into the cause for the security breaches in its MMORPG.

The exact number of victims is unknown at this time, although the official forums for the mobile publisher have been swamped with gamers complaining about others accessing their characters – both on mobiles and via Facebook.

Declan Mcullagh of CNET has a statement from Gameloft in his coverage of the breach.
