A question about accounts.

Post by majincooler »

I just noticed that if someone was able to know your ID and password, he is able to change also the email verification. Meaning, if you tried to recover your account, with the ID, secret question and your original verification email, you wont be able to, since the email verification you will enter will be wrong. This means that someone by just knowing your ID and password will get ahold of your account, and the secret answer wont be of help?

I see this as a very important issue, unless I m wrong about something. Discuss.
Once he knows the secret answer, your also doomed and can never obtain back the account.

You can't change the verified email, maybe you an change the email itself, in the Email section, but you cant change the email in the small box up in the screen named Ëmail Verification. :)
