Just got this email, but it doesn’t look legit. What is worse, i have seen this person logged into some of my Plex clients over the last few days.
Yes, it is.
Also see the same message in the pinned announcement at the top of the forum
The text of the emails is not the same. Plus, why was the user 9wbj6 logged into my clients?
Seems you’re using “sign in with Apple”… so that’s what Plex got to see from you
In any case, I have removed every single authorized device from my servers. And I changed my password two days ago - not going through that mess again. Required a total uninstall/reinstall.
Ah. Thanks. I did do that when i couldnt get access.to my.server. nice to know i probably.wasnt hacked.
I dont know my old password so I cant change it. It also wont let me delete my account without the old password. How to i delete this account without a password. Please advise.
Plex have commented that this is part of the security they applied in line with the breach so nobody can simply delete your account.
From the linked note/guide:
Some common issues that have come up:
- If you wish to delete your Plex account (or make some other important account changes, such as altering the email address), you’ll need to first change/reset the password before you proceed with the account change.
You can click “Forgot Password” on the login screen or use the password reset link from the linked guide
