Hackers Stole 1 Million IDs for Online Game
... between 980,000 and 1.22 million of them were set up in the name of Internet users who never signed up to play the game.
NC Soft, the maker of the game, is under investigation for aiding and abetting the ID theft. Lineage saw its membership increase by some 170,000-510,000 a month since last October. In the process, the company received up to 18,000 complaints per month from users who had joined the game and paid for membership without their knowledge, up from a mere 2,000 at other times, but failed to do anything about it, according to police.
