I find this email frightening. Just because nothing has happened so far (at least nothing that can be proven) doesn't mean that anything can happen....we don't know who else got hold of the data apart from the white hat hacker. At this point in time, the "Merkur Group" cannot give any assurances that someone else may have obtained the data set. And not to put the whole thing into perspective - "OUR DATA MUST NOT BE AVAILABLE ON THE NET FOR ANYONE" regardless of whether anyone had access at all. Even the possibility that it is accessible to other people .....is PUNISHABLE.
Down with the Gauselmann scum....sue the sh*t out of them. I'm definitely joining the class action.

Me too, about data being secure. It was the best advertising for interested parties. Off to the front with the fud.

I wouldn't do that either. Due to the frequency, it can be assumed that it is a phishing email. If you reply to this email or click on links and then enter your details, you are sharing this information with strangers. They could then log into your account and gamble away money (the most harmless thing). But what would be even worse: they would then try 100% to get in somewhere else (as many people always use the same password). They have your email + password.

I also received the email from Jokerstar. I had my account deleted there over a year ago.

Got the email from Jokerstar tonight too, but the Live Chat just said it was a system error on their end and not an attempted external access.
