Hello all^^

so since release of the game this is the third @mail that I receive for an attempt to log in into my account from China, is this something I should take care of? I mean untill I wont autorize the log in I shoulnt be scare of this? Changing account password once in a while is the only way to counter this?

Cheers^^

Yup, they are just warning that someone tried to log into your account from a location other than what is already authorized. Got a few of those myself. But as long as you have a unique complex password you shouldn’t have to worry. Maybe add the authenticator to your account (when they fix the issues with it) would be an additional security measure.

And BTW, just to be clear, you DO NOT authorize these attempts. Just change your password and continue playing.

Got 5 attempt yesterday, all in one day :| changed password again… this is something really we should not care about? I mean we have the IP adresses (I know they are probably under proxy) but, cant DEVS block this stuff or something like that?

You have some sort of keylogger, trojan on your PC? Should have it check up. Scan

If you changed your password and someone knows it, yes, you should be very worried as it means your PC is compromised.

you should consider changing your email address used as well.
then you will not even know they were trying.

Changed password after those login attempt, made a scan with antivirus and malwarebytes, full scan nothing found, I will try Windows defender full scan too when I will have time, it takes ages… I will consider a format at this time, thanks all for the info!
