Someone changed my user ID and password for my iLok account 5 days ago - I just realized today (I haven't used it for at least a week and I missed the email that notified me of the change). It had a lot of licenses stored there. Pretty scary - I just submitted a support ticket. I'm pretty sure whoever did it, they will try to sell my licenses.

Note that things like these always happen when you happen to have the same login credentials for other logins which have been compromised (there's usually no "hacking" or something, it's simply that your login credentials have been snooped out). You better check if you used those credentials on other sensitive sites as well.szurcio wrote: Sun Sep 11, 2022 6:07 pm Someone changed my user ID and password for my iLok account 5 days ago
Or, it's like svrc wrote, and the user name password combination simply was too obvious.

the other night, my almost 3 year old granddaughter, managed to hit the right combination of 4 digits
luckily it was a one off, but as i saw my phone open i was a bit shocked ill be honest!
not that there anything on my phone she can't see, just didn't like the idea of it being so easy!

That is really scary. I am actually going to change my own password to something harder.szurcio wrote: Sun Sep 11, 2022 6:07 pm Someone changed my user ID and password for my iLok account 5 days ago - I just realized today (I haven't used it for at least a week and I missed the email that notified me of the change).
