The report comes from Cyber Daily, who also broke the news of last year’s confirmed hack attack on Insomniac Games. The site claims that new ransomware group Mogilevich are the culprits, as per the screencap of a darkweb posting above, and that the hackers are now trying to get Epic or another party to pay up for the return of the data, with a deadline of 4th March.

Epic, however, say that they’ve yet to see any proof that a ransomware attack has taken place. “We are investigating but there is currently zero evidence that these claims are legitimate,” a spokesperson told Eurogamer this morning.

      Mine was too. We still had a couple systems using the old methods, but mostly had moved to the token system.

      You also just get laid off? They took out ~50% of the payments department at my last job
