Heads Up for LinkedIn Users - Millions of Passwords Stolen

If you have an account on LinkedIn, be aware that over six million were stolen and posted online. While the company notified those affected, I suggest you change your password as soon as possible even if you didn't hear from them.

More importantly, if you use that same password on other accounts, they could be at risk too. Hackers will eventually branch out.  I suggest you change that password on every other account you used it on. Better safe than sorry.
