Good on them for catching it early and handling it properly, but I'd be firing that accounting firm.

Weird that antifishing training isn't a normal requirement for people working with sensitive information.

I changed my password before actually reading the article:

On January 11th at 8:13am PST, the accountant responded to the attacker and provided a spreadsheet with the following information: Full Name, Email Address, Balance Owed.

[...]

As part of a subsequent investigation, the company identified all customers whose information was exposed in the attack and notified them of the incident via email.

So if I didn't get an email I'm good? Because I didn't get an email.

This is something I would like to know as well. I have an open preorder at the minute and haven’t received anything. These articles are how I found out. Best practice for now is to change your password and pay attention to the payment method on file for unauthorized transactions
