Data Leak. Password compromised.
Just had a message when logging in concerning a data leak and need to change password? I’m aware this may be false - but looking for any advice on whether this is genuine. Ta.

Sounds like you have some kind of malware unless the site has been compromised.

I had the same message. What are they going to do, post drivel on here? Nobody would notice.

Re: Data Leak. Password compromised.
Does it tell you which password\site is compromised? - if it does then use a previous link to the site (not the one in the suspicious email\message) or navigate direct to the site and reset your password.
Quite often its just a phishing message which will take you to a dodgy site and capture any details which you input so be careful!

Are you able to replicate the issue and post a screenshot?
