If you are getting these, there is either a wide spread attempt to hi-jack accounts or someone is trying to gain access to my accounts.

thanks for the heads up doc.no emails like this from my end.
Anyone else getting these emails?
Neither account has been breached.
A glitch in GD's system? sending out password resets when I did not ask for them?

No problems here.
no issues with my account, someone is trying to hack your domains! Get GD to investigate the IP address of the user who requested a password reset!
Well, if these are not going out then it must be an isolated issue.Originally Posted by 24HourDomainer
Will contact GD and see if someone could trace the request.

Hope they find out who this scumbag is that is trying to hack your account. All the best.
Was trying to find the post by Adam, but GoDaddy can activate a feature where they will call you on the phone & ask for a security code before any transfer or push can take place. Call your rep!

Sent all the information to my account exec.Hope they find out who this scumbag is that is trying to hack your account. All the best.
Looks like I may have to request a user name change.
This is the downside to sites like Domain Tools...too much information is presented, such as how many domains are associated with a certain name or address or entity.

I don't use their services and never will, just because of that one tool that gives scammers access to your assets using your email!
Do a check on discussions you recently had, and see if any replied back harshly to your comments... scammers are idiots with low IQ level! Sometimes you can track them down!
Good Luck
LOLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!!!! That is an hourly by-product here on DNF!

Account exec called back and related that nothing appeared out of the norm. Most likely it was someone with an account number similar to mine but off a number or two.

There have been so many threads started lately regarding domain theft with a large number of them being at GoDaddy.
