Did everyone else receive a notice from Trafficz that they require me to change
my password?

I got it.

I received it and I am still trying to decide if it is legit. I have had so many bogus emails from people pretending to be trafficz, I am not really sure about this one.

I didn't receive a message stating I must change my password. Instead, I received a message stating my password had already been reset with a temporary password included in the message.

I discovered this message in my junk mail folder after I had already tried to login and failed.

I was slightly alarmed that they had sent a password in a plain text email message without any prior notification. I believe this has certainly created a significant window of opportunity for thieves.

My concern was hightened when I discovered that this temporary password they sent did not work either. So I tried the password reset on their website and never received any reply.

I have emailed support and have yet to receive a reply. Should I be concerned?

I also received a rather generic looking email. First thought was that it was phishing for my password. Checked the headers on the email and decided that it was legit.

Logged in with the password they sent me and was able to change to my new password. Have logged on several more times today and everything is OK.

I got it... but I ignored it. I rather wait to make sure this is not a scam.
