Yesterday on the Minecraft forums a Representative from the Minecraft server hosting service announced that approximately 1,000 Minecraft accounts have being hacked.

It is advised that all Minecraft users change their password even if they are not 1 of the 1,000 people who had their account hacked.

To check if your account is hacked you can go here: http://dinnerbone.com/minecraft.php.

For more information on what you should do to make your account more secure head on over to mcBans.

Thank you to the SGGamingInfo forum user Orgcon for letting us know.
