This is worrying.
I noticed something very wrong with the site yesterday and I couldn't access it. This is a serious data breach.
I logged in tonight and it was being odd again. I had some very strange new matches, lots and lots of them and they were all very very high with odd email addresses/names and "testing" companies, in the hundreds and up.
I tried refreshing the page and it's down again, so I can't access it to remove my kits.
Added: Their Facebook page said this ~24 hours ago;
Today, we became aware of an issue that caused user permissions to be set incorrectly. We took the site down while our technical team worked to resolve the issue. We are confident that the problem has been corrected and the site is now available once again. Further, we have taken precautions to ensure this issue does not arise in the future. We will share any additional information about this incident as it becomes available.
It's not been corrected as issues still present.
