"Ruby on Rails is the platform upon which LivingSocial runs." - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LivingSocial http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LivingSocial I'm just speculating but the first thing that ran through my head is 'this must be a Rails breach'. I'm also guessing that a very large percentage of the 50 million users signed up like I did when Amazon had a deal (something like $20 gift card for $10). LivingSocial have put up somewhat of a statement on their web site asking you to change your password: https://login.livingsocial.com/forgot_password/?reset=true https://login.livingsocial.com/forgot_password/?reset=true """ LivingSocial recently experienced a cyber-attack on our computer systems that resulted in unauthorized access to some customer data from our servers. We are actively working with law enforcement to investigate this issue. The database that stores customer credit card information was not affected or accessed. Although your LivingSocial password would be difficult to decode, we want to take every precaution to ensure that your account is secure, so we are expiring your old password and requesting that you create a new one.
