Roku Data Breach Exposes 15,000 Users; Company Responds by Securing Accounts and Issuing Refunds

Hackers stole data from over 15,000 Roku users, including passwords, credit cards, etc. They sold the data for just $0.50 per account.

It was a "password stuffing" attack - hackers tried stolen passwords from other sites to break into Roku accounts.

Roku has secured affected accounts, reset passwords, investigated fraudulent charges, and issued refunds.

If you think your Roku is hacked, change passwords, enable 2-factor authentication, monitor accounts for suspicious activity.

If hacked, contact bank/credit cards, freeze/cancel cards, dispute charges, alert contacts of potential spam/phishing using your accounts.
