I don’t see how this could be phishing as I have a unique password for PSN that I don’t use anywhere else, and I never need to input this password on any website… One day I get 4 emails that funds were added to my PSN wallet and $50 worth of fifa points purchased – A game I don’t even own. How can this be my (the end users’) fault?

It’s not like I go around typing in my PSN password on random websites – I’ve only typed it in once when I registered thru my playstation.

Also if it’s a FIFA/EA account safety issue – how did they get my PSN password? I do not own FIFA and definitely do not have any account with FIFA or EA, which even if I did would be a different password from my PSN password…

In reply to Steph. No surprise you're stupid enough to have your accounts compromised.

In reply to Steph.

Well, it’s been happening for longer on Xbox-branded consoles, hasn’t it? The first I recall hearing of it was on 360 some years back. And while that’s not necessarily reason enough to blame Microsoft, you’d think- with them being all cozy with EA right now- they’d be putting the pressure on the publisher to get their crap straight.

And remember: when it was happening on 360, Microsoft first denied it, then blamed their users for it.

That desperate to make PlayStation look bad, are we? Ignore that it’s happening on EVERY platform, and ignore that this is EA’s problem(which is obvious, since it’s not isolated to just one platform or brand). Let’s make it all the PS4’s problem! Let’s put all the blame on Sony!

Wonderful journalism, guy.

In reply to Steph. Its got nothing to do with which playstation you have got, if they hack the sony servers where your info is stored theyll get it anyway. even if you stopped playing on consoles and sold them those details will still be on there servers so they can still get hold of your CC details and use it.
