Title: Where do I report a possible attempt on an account theft?
Post by: Silverspark on 2014 Dec 27, 23:26:18
I'm sorry if this is the wrong section, but I got an email with an IP address that is not mine where someone tried to change the password on me.

Just make sure that you know your password and that you do not share it with anybody else (you might want to change it as well)
also you might want to change your email for your account if you want o be extra safe

if you are unsure how to do it or have any other questions please send me a pm
thanks

Just wanted to add that the only email regarding passwords the forum's system will send is if you/someone uses the forgotten password function.  LoE/our forums will not send an email to you if the password has been changed on your account here, meaning it's likely junk, or possibly malicious.  If you are concerned about the security of your account I suggest doing what Sleuth mentioned above.  Thanks
