Change Your Passwords! 2 Million Facebook/Google/Yahoo/Twitter Passwords Stolen


 CNN Money reports that hackers have stolen usernames and passwords for nearly two million accounts at Facebook, Google, Twitter, Yahoo and others.

The massive data breach was a result of keylogging software maliciously installed on an untold number of computers around the world, researchers at cybersecurity firm Trustwave said. The virus was
capturing log-in credentials for key websites over the past month and sending those usernames and passwords to a server controlled by the hackers.

If you use any account on those platform, its advisable to change it immediately to be on the safe side.
