Last night we reported that the LEGO Shop was hacked to promote a crypto scam and LEGO today has released a statement to Engadget about it. They did confirm that there was an unauthorized banner (shown above) and they have identified the cause of why it happened and are implementing measures to prevent it from happening again. Everything should be back to normal now and no user accounts were affected but I suggest changing your password anyways and using the two-factor authentication.
“On 5 October 2024 (October 4 evening in the US), an unauthorised banner briefly appeared on LEGO.com. It was quickly removed, and the issue has been resolved. No user accounts have been compromised, and customers can continue shopping as usual. The cause has been identified and we are implementing measures to prevent this from happening again.”
