NewEgg.com hacked
If you made a purchase from Newegg.com from August 14, 2018 through September 18, 2018, your credit card details were stolen by Russian hackers.

Thanks for the heads up. My last order with Newegg was in July so that's a relief but I wonder if this applies to Newegg.ca as well as .com. Doesn't say in the article.

It also says that they removed the hackers' code, but it doesn't say that they patched the security hole (one that was big enough to drive a truck through) that allowed the hackers to alter the web page code in the first place, so for now we must assume that they could be re-hacked again.

I haven't ordered anything from Newegg since last year. So I'm safe.
