Title: [PSA] Teamviewer hacked maybe
Post by: prozajik on June 03, 2016, 11:55:05 AM

https://www.reddit.com/r/pcgaming/comments/4ma8mv/psa_teamviewer_has_been_hacked_they_are_denying/

Just posting for awareness. Not saying whether it's true or not, but quite few people reported their TV being breached (details in comments on reddit).

TL;DR
You might want to consider uninstalling TeamViewer for some time, until it gets sorted out, possible security breach.

EDIT:
Changed title so the words 'teamviewer' and 'hacked' are visible from the main forum menu, even tho the title is pretty dumb like this

From what I saw yesterday it seems like TV is denying everything. We shall see.

I've only ever used it as free and with the ID/key part, I assume this is unaffected this as these change (at least the key does) every time?  Can't really tell from the discussion I've read.  Either way disabled the service to play it safe.
