    Got a email saying my email was changed

    Just got a email saying that my email address was changed, and to reply to the email to let them know I received it.
    It has been a long time since I have posted here and the first thing I thought was my account got hacked.
    However I was able to log in (took my a couple tries to remember my password) and checked my settings. My email address was still the same and was not changed. I went ahead and changed my password just to be safe.
    I did not reply to the email and still have it in my inbox if a mod wants me to forward it to them or see a screenshot.
    Could it be a phishing email using this forum's name?

    The man who says something is impossible, is usually interrupted by the man doing it.

    I truly apologize for the confusion. Nothing is wrong other than a tired admin forgot to uncheck a pile of default settings before sending an email change notice to one account.

    Just out of curiosity, did anyone get a followup message saying the first message was sent in error?
