I just received an e-mail in a bogus account I have that Livestream has had a security breach and to change my password by clicking on the link provided.

I googled the Livestream website and do not see any announcement about a security breach.  I will try to contact them in about half an hour when they open, but they may be off today.  Will let you know.

Just a heads up to be wary of such scams, particularly during the holidays.

I hadn't heard of Livestream but if you google it, there are reports of the data breach.

Thanks, ValuSkr.  Actually, that was the first thing I did, but I didn't see anything.  I'll try googling again in a different browser.

ETA:  Yep.  It was right there in black and white in Firefox.  Tx again.

@SaRina and @ValuSkr, thanks for sharing this alert!  We can't hear too much about these things, to help us all stay aware, informed, and careful.

Best wishes to you both for a happy holiday season and a wonderful 2016!

I just got the email this morning and I am not clicking on the link but going straight to LS to change my password.

Everyone is talking about it on tiny kittens LS and most people are changing their password just to be safe.

I think it affects people that use LS as a means for work related issues and not viewing LS like most of us do but it is good to be extra cautious.
