Read this if you have any information that was sensitive on the litecoin forum.

It has been moved to another server and brought back online. Change your password immediately for security reasons.

Anyone that has any services tied to the old litecoin forum please take the proper actions (if any) to secure those services etc.

WOW ty for this VERY IMPORTANT information smoothie... with all the alt coins out there and individuals and sites it can be hard to keep track of everything and potential scam/hack/malicious behaviour by a few that spoil it for the majority of us, and this is a clear cut example of miss-use of admin rights and has all the earmarks of serious private information breaching...

So I will say it again for all those that have smoothie on ignore (those that can't handle his reality!! and actually a LOT of truth) ... THIS IS IMPORTANT IF YOU HAVE AN ACCOUNT ON http://forum.litecoin.net ... the advice from the NEW forum admins Coblee and Someguy123 is...

"I would like to warn people, if you have had any services where Greedi has had any sort-of administrative access, please CHANGE YOUR PASSWORDS NOW....

...As a precaution to all of our members, please change your passwords if you're concerned, Greedi has access to the original database, and could possibly attempt to steal your passwords (They were hashed, although if you have a weak password, he could attack them)"

read the link in full.. will inform you what "can" happen in the crypto-currency world we live in http://forum.litecoin.net/index.php/topic,1179.msg6757.html ty again smoothie
