Advisory Alert

As X moves into payments, some users are getting strange password reset emails they did not ask for

As X moves further into payments, some users are getting password-reset emails they did not ask for, which may be a sign that someone is trying to get into their accounts. People should treat these messages carefully and avoid clicking links unless they are sure the request is real.


Who is at risk

Anyone with an X account, especially users who plan to link payment features or store personal or financial information, is most at risk.

What to watch for

Watch for unexpected password-reset emails, login alerts, or messages asking you to confirm account or payment details.

What to do

Do not click reset links from unexpected emails; instead open X directly through the app or official website, change your password if needed, and turn on extra login protection.
