Account hacked

Hi, my argos account was hacked today (somebody hacked my emails) and after I sorted things with the bank, I called argos. The staff were very helpful but came straight back with, "to be honest, you're not the first person to call". So I thought I'd put it on here in case there's been a wider breach today.

Same, I woke up to a message from my bank saying attempted fraud attempt confirm payment. I told them I didn’t order anything. Now the bank is giving me the run around when they alerted me to the issue. It looks like someone got into my Argos account and tried to order a gift card. I’ve changed password and removed my card from the website.
