Anyone else run into this problem?

was playing at like midnight no problem,

went to load up poe and login and get login error: the specified account does not exist.
went on the poe website, was still logged in since i have it save it, so i made a couple posts and sent a support request, but decided to logout and see if i could login again, and on the site it says login does not exist as well..

Have sent an email to GGG about the issue, but wondering if anyone else has run into this problem today as it would appear to be something related to new changes they may have made and accidentally lost accounts.

Hi Caulder,

It looks like someone has accessed your account and changed the email address. To do this they would also have to have access to your email account, so get the passwords for your game account and email account changed as soon as you can. I have locked your account for now so no-one will be able to access it. I will forward this message on to a senior support member to assist you further, expect a reply back soon.
Regards,
Jason


However. I know with 100% certainty that my e-mail account is secure and untouched.

So, that leaves one possibility. GGG's security is in-fact breached.

Don't be so ignorant, nobodies email is 100% safe these days. If their security was breached why are they going after scrubs and not accounts like Kripparian, nugiyen, and other popular streamers?

actually, you can be positive an e-mail is safe. don't be so ignorant yourself.

/e the simple fact that changing an e-mail address would cause an account to not exist... is a major problem with GGG's system anyway. Regardless of how it is done.
What if I wanted to change my e-mail in 10 years?

Please re-read my post, then slap yourself for thinking GGG security was breached.

nope
not even remotely similar

brand new pc, nothing but poe and poe forums ever run on it and a new gmail account for poe.
don't even use jsp on it, or any web browsing.

take your own advice. your ignorance is overwhelming.

/ee
Its aight, I was of the same opinion originally. Plenty of kids say oh i never use anything blah blah blah and lie about it all the time, eventually you find out they dl'd some shit or use ez pw and the same pw on everything.
Never believed it could be a problem on GGG's end.
Now I will eat my words and I know now that GGG has an issue here.
