"Razer Investigates Data Breach Claims, Resets User Sessions"

Gaming gear company Razer has recently reacted to rumors of a massive data breach with a short statement on Twitter, letting users know that they started investigating the matter.  Razer is a popular American-Singaporean tech firm focusing on gaming hardware, selling high-quality peripherals, powerful laptops, and apparel.  Information about a potential data breach at the company emerged on Saturday when someone posted on a hacker forum that they had stolen the source code, database, encryption keys, and backend access logins for Razer[.]com, the company's main website.  The user offered to sell that data for $100,000 worth of Monero (XMR) cryptocurrency and urged interested individuals to contact him directly to close the deal.  The publisher of the post has not set any limitations or exclusivity, meaning anyone willing to pay the requested amount would get the entire data set.  The hacker posted screenshots as proof of the breach.  The screenshots show file lists and trees, email addresses, source code allegedly for anti-cheat and reward systems, API details, Razer Gold balances, and more.  Cybersecurity analysts at FalconFeedsio spotted the announcement on the hacker forum and shared it with the public.
