bumfire Posted October 31, 2014 Share Posted October 31, 2014 Same here. Just make sure your email account password is long and mixed characters and also make sure your dcs website one is the same. Btw, dont click on the links in the email as they might not be coming from dcs themselves it may be spoofed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sammi79 Posted October 31, 2014 Author Share Posted October 31, 2014 I just changed it myself to be sure. Look at the email source, it was the same in the spurious one. I'm guessing some kind of server glitch. INTEL i7-7700k @ 4.8GHz / NVIDIA 1080-GTX 8Gb / 32Gb DDR4 @3200MHz / Win 10x64 Home Nid oes bara ar ôl felly bydd gennych dost yn lle hynny.

eurofor Posted October 31, 2014 Share Posted October 31, 2014 I got them as well. Unless there is testing going on my guess is that it could be a bot requesting password changes using usernames acquired from the forum. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
