Hackers may have stolen the personal information of 24.6 million Sony Online Entertainment users.More than 20,000 credit card and bank account numbers were also put at risk.
This in addition to the recent leak of over 70 million accounts from Sony’s PlayStation Network and Qriocity services.
Sony said that the compromised personal information includes customers’ names,
addresses, e-mail addresses, birth dates, gender, phone numbers, logins and hashed passwords.
Also at risk are the credit card numbers and expiration dates of 12,700 non-U.S. customers, plus 10,700 direct debit records from customers in Austria, Germany, Netherlands and Spain, containing bank-account numbers, customers’ names and addresses.
This information was stored in what Sony said was an “outdated database from 2007.”

soooo.. they got hacked twice??
Trying to back the elusive 100million hacked mark. Close but no cigar.
Ouch, that sucks
Really need to fix this D:
Sony is in for all sorts of bother if they don't sort this out quickly
Sony just cant do anything can they?
oooh.. it certainly does seem to be raining shit on sony at the moment.. i don't care. i still love em.. :)
Lol Bad Luck Sony
Just because it's an "outdated database" doesn't make it any better. For shame Sony.
I bet Sony's heads are spinning!
They really need to get their shit together.
consoles suck pc's rule
"As compensation for the Sony Online Entertainment leak, Sony said that it will give all of its customers 30 days of additional subscription time, plus an extra day for each day the servers remain down."
=
"Unsatisfied with our service? We're sorry, we suggest using it more."
It's fail after fail with this whole Sony thing, I can't say I'm that bothered because we all have fraud insurance on our credit cards, it's certainly gonna leave Sony red in the face though!
Wow they failed twice? Youd think theyd do something about it.
somebody's going to be in trouble.
Perhaps the problem isn't an outside source...
That's what you get for picking a fight with hackers!
Who care's if people homebrew their PS3s? Doesn't sound criminal to me!
that just sucks...poor sony. hope they recover soon.
Man this just keeps getting worse and worse. I hope Sony learns a lesson.
Sony's taking on a beating bad.
Sony re-works its whole online firmware just to get it hacked the second it comes out... so sad
They didn't get hacked twice. This hack happened at the same time as the first one with little doubt by the same people. Still bad. All those old everquest players who haven't had a credit card number change have a problem.
it looks like someone was really angry at sony and managed to screw everything up for them. As I understand they had to shut down their current running MMOs for the duration of this investigation aswell
Sad day for Sony..
bad days for sony ..
They're a joke. Fucked twice in the same month? And they said that Microsoft was bad...
soony...get your stuff together
Read today that only 90 of the credit cards was active
Sony is turning into a massive joke
that was pretty ridiculous.
glad I didn't have my credit card info in their system...
This may be the end for Sony. Hopefully Microsoft learns something from this and never allows this to happen to them.
I see lawsuits in the future...
ugh. straight up fiasco.
Sony needs to get their shit together. They have little breathing room as it is.
Their compensation is almost a joke, seeing as how they are offering it to new users and those who could have had their accounts compromised. Need to give something other than a free trial...
Wow, this is getting ridiculous. Sony needs to just admit everything and take the stock loss. People's security is at risk here.
hackers you are doing it rite, poor sony
