Lakeland website hacked - warning

Be_Happy

Just received e-mail from Lakeland saying their website has been hacked and database accessed. They are removing all passwords, but equally importantly, they advise that if you use the same password on other websites, you should consider changing your password there too.

I had that email too. Only ever ordered from them once. More concerned what data they have accessed - credit card, address, email address etc.

OK resetting my password on their site but what else do I need to change elsewhere? Do I need to cancel my card, change my email address etc??

I haven't had this e-mail and I shop with them on a regular basis?? Hope this isn't a phishing e-mail scam.........

Well I'm going to change my email address and passwords for any websites I use where I've used the same email address as Lakeland.

Just have to keep an eye on my bank account, fortunately its an account that I only use for making online purchases so there is only ever enough money in it to cover what I'm ordering.

It was good they contacted customers, but a little disapointing they didnt give enough information about what could have been accessed.
