Fake Adobe Alert or what?

Posted by: Blueknowz on 16 November 2013

My wife received a letter today supposedlly from Adboe Ireland dated 23 Oct 2013 warning her to check her account & change her password, the only Adobe product she uses is a FREE version of Adobe Reader for which you don't need a password, does she have anything to worry about?

BK,

    I am aware that there has been a lot of press release data about Adobe security bing breached

 

We have had 2 notfications and they advise to change your security details.

 

I would think that your notice is Adobe ensuring they have contacted all users to cover their corporate liabilities.

I got the letter today. Looks genuine enough. I will scrutinise my CC monthly statement (which I do in any case) and occasionally check my online account for stuff that I haven't ordered. It's a nuisance but how much of one remains to be seen.
