150 million MFP users data was stolen and I have not seen any information from Under Armor on this forum or in email. I would like to know if my data was stolen and if so, what data was taken. http://fortune.com/2018/03/29/under-armour-myfitnesspal-hacked/

    So now some hacker knows that you ate Doritos and sent half a dozen inappropriate photos to that certain someone ?

    149,999,999 other MFP members are right there with you.

    Most of the discussions about this issue are happening in the MFP Suggestions/Feedback forum.

    If it helps, the notice is being rolled out (takes time with @150 million users to notify). I found it when I logged into the site through my browser, it was highlighted at the top of the window, above all the menus. I couldn't see anything on the mobile app yet. I'm in the UK, don't know if they are notifying by time zone. I just happened to be watching the BBC when it was a "breaking news" item.
    The link, once logged in, is here https://content.myfitnesspal.com/security-information/notice.html

    Got an email. Info also on main page when I logged in. Good on you, MFP! Letting 150 million peeps know anything is a monumental task!

    Is this gonna be like that time Ashley Madison got hacked and cheating husbands and wives everywhere were all clenched up worrying about people finding out what they really do during working hours?

    Well I received an alleged email from MFP about the breach.

    I'm a lil' dubious of it tho'...... any other MFP private message typically contains filthy attachments, this one just had some fancy words; I ain't buying it.

    According to a Reuters article, the breach occurred in February. It is now nearly April. It should not take a month to coordinate a message to the user base when their security has been compromised.

    I got my notification email just under two hours ago. Never saw the notice at the top of the page because I don't usually sign out. Tried signing out to sign back in, and there it was.

    I wouldn't look at it that way. Any good site should make you change your password periodically. And even if they don't suggest it, you should anyway.

    Why don't MFP have 2FA implemented yet?

    A lot of folks use the same password for many sites. One a hacker knows this one, then they try your Amazon, your bank, etc. They'll get a lot of hits.
