LastPass Sentry Alert
Hello,
Hackers claim to have hacked the site chicagovps.net on 2013-02-28 and we've detected that your email address was
included in the data published as part of the leak. The full description of the leak is as follows:The hacker known as NITEDREAM has published an archive to MediaFire.com, consisting of a MySQL dump that seems to > belong to chicagovps.net. The data contains dumps of several DB tables, including account credentials for admin > accounts.
Please update the password for your chicagovps.net account immediately. The LastPass Security Challenge, located in the > Tools menu of the LastPass addon, will help find any other accounts using the same password as the leaked account.
Thanks,
The LastPass Team

@hiphiphip, what are your usual practices for things like this?
Also, isn't this what's being said in http://www.lowendtalk.com/discussion/8618/chicagovps.net-user-database-hacked-lastpass-security-email ?
@Damian 囧
I saw this post
http://www.lowendnetwork.com/discussion/8383/chicagovps-database-leaked-chicagovps-customers-change-your-root-passwords-immediately
but ignore http://www.lowendtalk.com/discussion/8618/chicagovps.net-user-database-hacked-lastpass-security-email
this one.
Lastpass is sweet to send this sentry alert,maybe it could be a service to monitor private information.
Ah.. do you guys normally send out notifications like this?
Pretty sure he's not with the last pass team, lol.
@Damian
what notifications are you talking about?
囧 益 or the alert mail.
囧=embarrassed
Last time when csdn.net's password was leaked,I received several alert mail from different websites.
@hiphiphip, Damian thought you were part of LastPass team due to the formatting of your first post. When you quote someone's words, use the quote function; otherwise people will think that it was written/coming from you and lead to such misinterpretation.
@DalComp
Thank you for the clear explanation!
I've thankfully never had an email from lastpass - but I know they do monitor things like this...
