Lost all EasySocial photos

I just noticed that many photos, cover photos etc. were missing from my site today. I thought it was just an issue with the CDN so I turned it off but no change. I checked my server and found the media/com_easysocial/photos folder almost empty - it just had a few user id folders where people had just uploaded some new photos but everything up until 1st May has been completely deleted - nearly 7gb of images.

I absolutely didn't delete them myself by accident - in fact I haven't even been on the server for several days, and nobody else has access. It is only the content of the photos folder that has disappeared - everything else seems fine - avatars etc. are all there.

Any ideas? Is there some bug that could have done this? Luckily I have a fairly recent backup that I am copying back across now but I'm concerned it will happen again.

The last thing I remember doing relating to Easysocial was truncating the jos_social_migrators table as it quite huge and no longer needed, but other than that, nothing has changed.

I am on v1.2.5 still - not had time to update.
