In June 2014, a hacker made his way into the BlackHatWorld database and leaked around 750,000 user account information. BHW kept news about the breach within their network after advising their users to take security precautionary measures.

TL;DR, the alleged breach has not yet been proven. And even IF it is true, the most basic basic security measures (unique passwords, etc) will eliminate any chance of compromised accounts.
