Warning. How did someone obtained my SKYBET details

I couldnt find anywhere to post this but a warning to others. Someone accessed my skybet account using my user name and PIN. I dont know how they got either. They used my account balance and my daily deposit limit from my payment card. I dont play poker and have never played sky poker. I usually bet on sports games such as football or rugby or horseracing, using small amounts. Immediately they obtained my funds they played poker straight afterwards, presumably losing to a friend I would guess. I have reported the matter to skybet, Action fraud, but not my bank. I have taken account to protect my skybet account, but was using a four digit pin. I have changed to a six digit pin.
