I got one this morning just logged into my account through the actual cc Moore website and reset my password, no big deal

might not seem like a big deal....BUT to have got this far clearly a lot of information has been nicked including personal contact details, addresses, passwords. It's no big deal until you are "done" and someone's nicked your identity, unravelling that can be a very horrible process.

I got the email but I'm not receiving any emails with links to change my password, great!
So I wonder if they've got payment details from this scam? Might be an idea to chase them up and find out what the deal is.

My point exactly. Some people just don't take these things very seriously and they really should. I thought it very poor show for CC Moore to send out such a crap message and at the same time, fail to validate on their website. Just glad my email caught it and didn't put in my inbox. I only hope no one suffers because of the data breach.

I got one this morning but had to change password two weeks ago so should I have got the email two weeks ago?

Sadly data breaches happen all to often and even to the biggest and most respected organizations .
Not much more than can do than tell us whatever we think of their mail.
Happy Fridays 😄

I received the email myself today, and have just reset the password. On the home page they state that their new website is soon to go live, and could everybody please reset their password as a result.....
🤔 bit of a coincidence that, what with a data breach. At least they could have been honest, or perhaps the mistake is mine in assuming something........

I haven't had one, if I had I would inform my bank asap NOT to pay CC Moore until I advise them to.
Mine was in my spam box so I just deleted it
I received the email from CCMoore today. It was pretty clearly written and appeared genuine, but you never know so I called them on their normal number to check and it IS 100% genuine.
There is also a dedicated helpline number in the email which I also rang. I've changed my password. I was told they don't keep any payment details as all payments on their site are processed through PayPal or WorldPay. They were pretty helpful tbf, as indeed they should be.

What else would you expect from a bunch if farmers?
At least they have told people (in the end) which is more than another well known tackle shop did. That said based on a couple of recent cases CC M could be leaving themselves open to legal challenge having admitted they knew in December but made no-one aware.
