Sony reports that its sites in Canada, Thailand and Indonesia have been hacked, writes Variety. Sony has taken down all three sites as a result.

In Canada, the Sony Ericsson Mobile Communications' site was breached and 2,000 users had their names, passwords and emails accessed. In Thailand, hackers ran an email phishing scheme. In Indonesia, the hackers obtained code for Sony's music service.

This follows the massive breach in April of Sony's PlayStation Network and Qriocity services where users' credit card information was obtained and the recent hacks in Japan and Greece.
