Possible Namecheap hacker on the prowl

[katherine]

Received this by E-mail from Namecheap yesterday:

As you requested, here is the password for your account at Namecheap.

Username: ##########
Password: ########
Request IP: 85.96.36.10

Thank You,
Namecheap.com

Of course I never requested a password reminder.

This is a Turkish IP address (dsl.dynamic85963610.ttnet.net.tr).

Also, remember that there are security options available at Namecheap, to receive notifications of successful/failed login attempts, contact changes etc.
Now is a good time to activate them !

Thanks for the heads up.
