EVE Volunteer Program Compromised

The volunteer manager for EVE Online reported today a compromise last weekend to the Interstellar Services Department, EVE Online’s volunteer program, leading to the theft of some volunteer program data and specific info about some volunteers. EVE stressed that the theft in no way affected their online operations or any player or customer data.

From the EVE Online Dev Blog:

All players, particularly those who are or have been in the EVE Online volunteer program, should be aware that any e-mails sent from the @eve-crc.net domain are bogus and have been sent from someone pretending to be an official representative of CCP.

We are taking this issue extremely seriously and have launched a full investigation. In the meantime, to be on the safe side, we have shut down all ISD servers and services to protect our volunteers and the integrity of the program and are now working diligently toward strengthening and improving our practices and policies pertaining to the volunteer program to ensure its ongoing success and valuable contribution to the EVE Online experience.
