As I own Argway LLC, Yes it's very legit; Talking with envira on what to do but there's not much you can do when they already have the database.
Specially since the MyBB password hashing technique is so stupidly fast so I'd advise you to change your password if you used the same.
Sad. Any idea how this happened ?

It was a targeted attack by kids who got ahold of his password and he hadn't protected his admin control panel.

Pretty strawberry ridiculous if the issue is simply password reuse. There are no requirements for staff passwords, password rotation, etc. here so it all comes down to luck.
I've seen the thread. Really after the last time you'd think there would be requirements.
There is meant to be (or I was under the impression there was anyway).

There may be. But are they enforced?
