DLC Street Fighter X Tekken characters are appearing in the game's multiplayer. Hackers gon' hack, I guess. The 12 extra characters are "DLC," but are already included on the game disc. A "legit" unlocking is expected at a later date this fall, complete with a "legit" price of $20. Some rascals seemingly could not wait.
On Capcom Unity's message boards, Christian Svensson, the Senior Vice President of strategic planning and business development at Capcom, confirmed it, addressing a gamer's question about playing Blanka by posting:
Do not think for a minute that this will not be addressed. Svensson continued:
It's hard to imagine anyone being all that surprised that hackers have unlocked the "extra"characters on the disc. I mean, they're right there, after all. If the only thing keeping people from accessing content is a sense of honor and a little technical monkeying, of course a certain percentage of people are not going to be able to wait.
Svensson goes on to request that gamers who face purloined characters take a screenshot and help in the eventual banning of these users. My question: If you fought someone who played one of the DLC characters, would you "turn them in?"

which is why I say putting this stuff on the disc before hand is completely stupid!
