They must fine then at least 200% billions to realy hurt the company. Because if they do what they with Facevook where i was fined only 5 billion for users data leaks they will continue doing this . The best thing people can do is deleted their Epic and Facebook accounts because then there willl not be personal info to be leaked or sold .

They aren't even suing over the data leak, they are suing over the lack of notice which is required by federal law for breaches over a certain size.

Also deleting your account wouldn't do anything as the leak already occured and unless you delete every online account, never order anything online and never sign up for any website online this will happen.
On Epic it cant happen if it had epic cards like steam. To buy things from steam i only use steam gift cards that are now avaliable on all big shops. On Epic people are forced to use their credit card because there are not epic gift card and also it dont support yet Paysafe cards. There wouldnt be such problem if epic store had paysafe cards support and also had epic cards being sold on shops. Anyway as i said they must fine them 200 billions or more in order to realy hurt them and not just billion like they did with facebook.

Perhaps you should actually read the article before you start commenting and embarrasing yourself?

1. A fine like you suggest would never happen, its against the law.
2. The breach had nothing to do with payment information so it doesn't matter if they force people to use credit card or not.
3. Using paysafe cards would do nothing and paysafe cards wouldn't prevent it
4. The breach had nothing at all to do with the Epic Store
5. These days its basically impossible to steal credit card info from a database breach unless they are incompetent. The way they encrypt the data prevents it from being read.

Again please post accurate info.

1. 200 million accounts were not hacked
2. Millions of accounts were POTENTIALLY exposed ONLY if the user then fell for a phishing scam and clicked on a 3rd party link to expose their info.

It wasn't a data breach like other sites in which they accessed a database of info, it was an exploit that exposed the account name and password when people fell for a phishing link. A bad exploit, but not remotely similar to an actual data breach in which millions of account details were stolen.

The problem is that they did not notify their customers when they found out, as they are legally obligated to. That's what they're being sued for.

I regretted defending them and made two videos calling them out on YouTube.

Their storefront is awful and their launcher is half finished and they should have spent more time working on the store as a result. I couldn’t buy games from them cause their store is awful and their store couldn’t decide if the problem was on their end or if it was on my end. Couldn’t have been on my end at all cause my card worked everywhere else.

Yes which is what i said 4 posts up - https://steamcommunity.com/discussions/forum/12/1643170903499514952/?tscn=1565624683#c1643170903501599646

Did you guys read the comments section ? 9 comments and one person said that her husband’s account was hacked and everything stolen.

Epic is requesting more information on the subject rather than trying to help sort out the problem. Then she said that her PSN account got tampered with cause she made the Epic account on PS4. Both are also having spam messages on their emails as a result.

Hopefully that guy does sue Epic if he can’t get his account back and or get refunded for every purchase he made.

Epic are real scum.

It is not that both accounts are linked, she used the same E-Mail accounts for both services or used the Main E-Mail account for Epic. Then you have access to all Sub-Mail accounts aswell.
At least she needs to keep away her Main-E-Mail account, so anyone can just take over one account. You change the E-Mail and password and ready to go. Hope she learns from her mistake, that ironically Epic helped to point out.

It’s Epic’s job to protect their customers. They have more money than Sony and Microsoft combined and yet they are having so many hacker problems. Why is that ? Account security is top notch on Microsoft and Sony.

Sony gets flak for the 2011 PSN hack, but it was done by Lizard Squad, a group of Infamous hackers that are some of the world’s best computer science heads.

Obviously the hackers are scum, but people are putting faith in Epic and this is yet again that they are having account issues.


Again I made two videos, this will be the third one, that is mentioning that Epic should take downtime to fully flesh out their store and their account security rather than continuing to secure exclusive deals for games. What they are doing is like a 600 pound man that is eating himself to death.

I’ve got to watch Walking Dead: The Final Chapter on YouTube because

1. It’s an Epic exclusive on PC

2. I don’t trust Epic because of their security breaches

3. Their checkout system/ card system is a joke. They don’t even have a wishlist or cart and it’s 2019.

It is personal data information leak and they must pay big fine for it. 50 billions then if not 200. As i said a small fiine(for such big companies) like the 5 billion fine on facebook will not hurt them these companies need a much higher fine to be hurt. I twas reading that Epic google facebook twitter e.t.c. all those big companies make 5 billions in about 2 months so you need a fine at least 10 times higher than that to realy hurt them and convicee them to stop selling our data and information.
