  1. Hey All, Just thought I'd remind people to setup their security tokens either the keychain version or via the cell phone app. My account was hijacked yesterday while I was out of the house. I received an email on my cell advising me that my password had been changed. I rushed home and sure enough, could not log in. Thankfully though my email had not been changed so I was able to use the password reset function and recover access to my account. I promptly setup the security key app on my cell afterwards. Earlier today I received the following email claiming to be from EA; Hi user, As part of our efforts to help ensure account security, the password for your account was recently reset. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause you and hope you will recognize we're taking this action to better protect your personal data. At EA, we care about the safety of your personal information and while we're doing all we can do to keep your data secure, you can help as well; be sure to change your passwords at least a few times a year and consider using a unique password for all your important accounts. If your link has expired, click here to generate a new email. If you have any questions about your account or experience any difficulties when trying to reset your password, please feel free to contact EA’s Customer Support directly at 1-877-357-6007. Sincerely, Electronic Arts - Customer Experience Team EA/Origin account, registration with enclosed serial code, internet connection and acceptance of end user license agreement required to play and to access online features and/or services. EA online terms and conditions can be found at http://www.ea.com. EA may provide certain incremental content and/or updates for no additional charge, if and when available. EA may retire online features after 30 days notice posted on http://www.ea.com The email address it came from was "em.ea.com" and hotmail also advised me that the message looked suspicious to their smartscreen filters. So I just ignored it. So I guess after I recovered my account the credit farmers wanted it back and this was their attempt. So everyone be on guard and take every precaution possible.
