My Riot account has been hacked for the second time

Submitted 3 years, 8 months ago by

My username and password was both changed without my consent.
I didn't get any e-mail confirmation code either, other then this:



There has to be some recent security issue associated with how they manage username accounts.
The hackers are somehow overriding my old username with a new one, but they can't access my e-mail 

I had no problems for 10 years... now its the second time this happens after they implemented their new acc system

Does anyone have any other experiences of being hacked before?

    You might want to run a check on your antivirus software to make sure you didn't pick up a keylogger at some point.

    basically this, just run a scan (not the quick one though). And some serious cleaning up will be a good thing too

    I'm not online       cat          it's just your imagination
