Why did this happen to me?

[beveryu778]

I just visited the forum and saw that the email address of my account has changed. I was surprised to see this because the account has 2FA security so the chances of a hacker getting into my account are very low. I immediately went ahead to change the email and then I saw a warning message which I am giving the screenshot below



Is this a bug in the forum? Or is there an attempt to hack my account? Has anyone encountered something like this before? The previous email on my account is still active and it wasn't Gmail it was a mail from  mail.com

You just happen to be using an old email that is currently invalid so the system automatically changed it for you. It's safer than letting your old email remain.

Hazink already provide you a link there you can find the actual issues why your email changed. you can read Theymos post directly - https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5484270.msg63622405#msg63622405

This Email Was changed automatically (so you shouldn't worry about it. just change and put a new email there)

Friendly advice - Use Google Gmail and you can now lock your thread because i think you got your answer

Yes, I just realized this after reading Theymos post.

I wasn't scared because I had control of my account. But I was a little surprised to see this.
