Be on the outlook for unsolicited emails that seem to know a lot about you.Monster.com is advising its users to change their passwords after data including e-mail addresses, names and phone numbers were stolen from its database.
The company disclosed on its Web site that it recently learned its database had been illegally accessed. Monster.com user IDs and passwords were stolen, along with names, e-mail addresses, birth dates, gender, ethnicity, and in some cases, users' states of residence. The information does not include Social Security numbers, which Monster.com said it doesn't collect, or resumes.
