Big Fish had a malware attack on new accounts for a couple weeks in Dec-Jan. Most of you need not worry, it is only if you updated your credit card or created a new account. In case this criteria here applies to you: “Your information may have been affected if you entered new payment details on our websites (rather than using a previously saved profile) for purchases between December 24, 2014, and January 8, 2015,” reads the letter from Ian Hurlock-Jones, Big Fish chief technology officer. You can read the full story Here. Ana

Thanks Ana. I am not a member but they still store the credit card which annoys me. I did take it out one day possibly around that time period and then had to enter it again when I placed an order. I'll have to check the last 2 or 3 order dates and keep a closer eye on my card.
I hope this doesn't have anything to do with the phony Amazon email I received today. (Amazon CC)
Argh. I place 2 orders within that time frame but can't remember when exactly I took the card number out and when I put it back in.

If you added a new card during that period, you "may" be affected. As I stated in the first post: "Most of you need not worry, it is only if you updated your credit card or created a new account"
