Blubbi zei:Ik zit hier precies met een probleem. Ik ben voor een paar weken op reis geweest, toen ik eens mijn mails checkte zag ik een mail staan van arenanet dat iemand mijn e-mail adres van me'n account heeft verandert.
Ik dacht dat het een fake mail was, maar nu ik hier net probeer inteloggen krijg ik te zien dat mijn e-mail adres niet kan worde gevonde...
Hoe kan dees nu? Ik heb 2 weken mijn pc niet aangeraakt.
Game status updates - Guild Wars 2 Wiki (GW2W)
Scanning Accounts & Email Spam
Yesterday, three malicious users each changed the account names of their own Guild Wars 2 accounts thousands of times, scanning through lists of email addresses stolen from other games and web sites, presumably to determine which email addresses were available (not already used for a Guild Wars 2 account) and which were taken. It obviously shouldn't be possible to change your own account name so frequently. We temporarily disabled account name changes and have now restored but limited them to prevent this.
To the thousands of people who received emails stating, "the email address for your Guild Wars account has been changed," and are not even our customers, we sincerely apologize for the spam. Please be aware that your email address is on a list of account credentials that hackers have apparently stolen from other games and web sites and are systematically scanning.
To Guild Wars 2 customers whose email addresses are being tested by hackers but not stolen, thank you for protecting your account by choosing a new, unique password for Guild Wars 2. Even though your unique password should protect you, we think you deserve to know if hackers have your email address on their list of credentials stolen from other games and web sites, so we'll send you periodic notifications when we see hackers testing your account.
