Did chess.com get recently hacked?

Recently, An extension on my computer said that chess.com has been recently hacked, but idk if that's true because I feel like the notification popped up from another site and I feel suspicious that chess.com did get hacked.

If you have the guardio or any other browser safety extension and a notification said "this site recently got hacked",  type "YES".

If you don't have a browser safety extension , type "I DON'T KNOW".

If you had a browser safety extension and no notification popped up, type "NO".

idk if Chess.com got hacked. I didn't get any notification. But I don't think we should worry about it.

I guess just hope it wasn't leaked

also if you use a password storing app I think some track data leaks to see if ur passwords have been leaked.

Nothing was leaked. Emails were found from another hacked site, the site find friends feature was used to map those emails to accounts here, and then publicly available data was pulled from the API (anything viewable on profiles).

As long as you're using safe password security, such as using different passwords for all sites, your data is safe and the only thing done is matching your email to your account here.

Staff are aware of that and it is a false positive.
