Any recent hacked accounts from Southperry users?

It doesn't matter where the email is stored. There is a simple and well known method of finding email and full name if you know the account ID and password.

Hopefully the date of birth is not so easy to get, since it is about all the protection you have left once the hackers have ID, password and pin.
Actually ,I think using DoB as a secondary password is rather STUPID, but I suppose when they were writeing the code years ago they didn't consider that they would need top-notch protection for a 'free to play' kiddies game. LOL The assumption was, of course, that people would use their real birthday, so it was a password that could not be lost or forgotten. However, many who use their real birthday don't otherwise treat it as secret information.
