Capcom hit by cyber attack, customer data may have been stolen

Capcom has announced that they've suffered a cyber attack, and customer data might have been stolen. While Capcom claims customer data is safe, the group behind the attack claims they have sensitive data on customers, including bank information and more. We honestly don't know which side is being truthful, but we do have Capcom's full statement on the matter below.

Beginning in the early morning hours of November 2, 2020 some of the Capcom Group networks experienced issues that affected access to certain systems, including email and file servers. The company has confirmed that this was due to unauthorized access carried out by a third party, and that it has halted some operations of its internal networks as of November 2. Capcom expressed its deepest regret for any inconvenience this may cause to its various stakeholders. Further, it stated that at present there is no indication that any customer information was breached. This incident has not affected connections for playing the company’s games online or access to its various websites.
