I just checked the Developer site, and I don't see any evidence of tampering with my account information. Glad I had two-factor turned on.
Got a tip for us?

Apple Developer Site Down as Developers Report Possible Hack [Update: Apple Says No Breach]

As usual, Apple is going to remain silent on the hack and pretend it never happened.
Well, why let a hacker know that he succeeded with which method?

Passwords are just the gateway in the front door.
Same with two-factor authentication.
If it were a hack from the outside they'd say something. Silence usually means compromise from the inside.

Because developers deserve to know if their information was compromised. If this was any other company, people would be up in arms about their lack of information about the hack.
Apple did drop that sever vender due to a fake patch that they downloaded and that was kept silent.

I wouldn't say the problem has been fixed, however. Automatic signing of provisioning profiles is still not working in Xcode. SNOW DAY!!!

Apparently this was just a bug:

.. if you take the day off every time that happens, you'll only work 3 days a year.

Everything seems to be working again after I deleted my App ID. It was probably just a coincidence.

"Missing bank account holder type"
I get this error on iTunesConnect here in our UK developer account today, which I've not seen before, and sure enough the 'account holder type' field (normally should be 'individual' or 'corporation') now has no option selected from the dropdown menu.
Our other visible bank account details are correct, and we did just happen to be paid by Apple today - money came through without any problem.
No developer email from Apple came through to us, so I'm going to sit tight for now and not update anything. Look forward to further clarity from Apple asap.

I've emailed Apple/iTunesConnect Support and am awaiting their reply.
Are you UK based too?
I've just had an email notifying me that an app was downloaded on a device not associated with my Apple ID. Password changed.
Look out.
Edit: Never mind; it was the warden.

Update: Apple replied to me: "This is not an error. This is a new field which is mandatory for all bank accounts provided in iTunes Connect." Kudos to for replying so fast.
Really? Because my name is bul. Novatorov, from Saint-Petesburg, Leningrad 198216, Russian Federation, and I think you're lying to me.

Who's to say it updated the billing information? While the data being updated might be one way to cause this issue, their explanation was that an incorrect address was displayed, which also would make sense. Just because it looks like your address was set to some Russian address doesn't mean it actually was.
Yes, I am in the UK as well.
Thank you for posting Apple's response. Glad to know there's nothing to worry about!
Drifting slightly off topic, are you able to set the field? Refuses to let me save as I've not changed any other details. Waiting on support to get back to me.
I'm not sure that I trust this response by Apple, but maybe that's because it was a Russian address that was displayed.
