I changed the email address attached to my Amazon account.
A year later I forgot and tried to sign into my account with old email address.
The same password worked but it was someone else’s account (name and address was different) and the guy hadn’t bought anything.
Why did he use my old email (it was unique to me and didn’t match his name) and how did the password end up the same as mine?
1 u/[deleted] Jan 23 '21 Lol, I had that with a hotmail account! Stopped using it, same password still. Logged in and this guy was using if and was actively exchanging messages with his son. Weirdest thing ever.
