Instead of telling its customers, the company told them that this week&#8217;s password reset was for &#8220;system updates.&#8221; <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/9JqKUEReEo\">https:\/\/t.co\/9JqKUEReEo<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Zack Whittaker (@zackwhittaker) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/zackwhittaker\/status\/1157682815900819457?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">August 3, 2019<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p><\/center><\/p>\n<p>In the time following the news of the hack, StockX has addressed the situation on a recent blog post stating that compromised information included &#8220;customer name, email address, shipping address, username, hashed passwords, and purchase history.&#8221; Thankfully, their investigation shows &#8220;there is no evidence to suggest that customer financial or payment information has been impacted.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>For those still wanting to use StockX, it is much recommended to change your password so that it differs from any password you use for any other important accounts such as your bank or your email. To be safe, you should reset those online logins if they indeed matched that of your former StockX login as a precaution.<\/p>\n<p>For those looking to delete their account we&#8217;ve found that it is possible but very difficult.<\/p>\n<p>Please note you have to click the FAQ section to delete your account or make any secure changes beyond resetting your password.

The first one allows you to delete your billing information. Investigations suggest this data has not been stolen or compromised, however this is clearly the most sensitive information linked to one&#8217;s account. To deactivate or suspend your account, the second prompt would keep anyone from being able to purchase or sell using your information.<\/p>\n<p>Lastly, to actually delete your account one has to manually email support@stockx.com to do so. We are yet to hear any feedback as to how long this process takes once the information is sent but keep it locked to Snkrs Day on all updates regarding this matter and topic.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Over the weekend, news broke of StockX being hacked with over 6.8 million records reportedly stolen from the site.
