Victory State Bank: You May Need To Change Your LinkedIn Password – Now
STATEN ISLAND, N.Y. -- Social media site LinkedIn has confirmed that some member passwords have been compromised.
Victory State Bank is urging affected LinkedIn participants to immediately change their passwords.
On the company’s blog, Vincent Silveira, a LinkedIn director, wrote:
- Members that have accounts associated with the compromised passwords will notice that their LinkedIn account password is no longer valid.
- These members will also receive an email from LinkedIn with instructions on how to reset their passwords. There will not be any links in this email. Once you follow this step and request password assistance, then you will receive an email from LinkedIn with a password reset link.
- These affected members will receive a second email from our Customer Support team providing a bit more context on this situation and why they are being asked to change their passwords.
According to a CNN report earlier today, 6.5 million LinkedIn passwords were affected by the security breach.
