So I woke up this morning to an email that my origin account email had been changed to one I didn't not recognize. 

 

I was able to get my account back and everything was in Russian, all my friends deleted, and one new Russian friend.

 

luckly my payment method has expired since I dont use origin often. 

 

how did my account get hacked? 

 

anything else I should change?

Sorry I hacked your account

I'm going to put a link to my PC specs which actually aren't my PC specs and I cry myself to sleep everyday so I can have these PC specs but I can't afford these PC specs so PC specs PC specs PC specs PC specs PC specs PC specs.

Yeah I had mine hacked about a year or two ago and the same thing happened. All friends deleted, everything in Russian and 1 Russian guy added. I got it back, changed my password and ever since then everything has been fine.

Haha funny thing, I did give origin a call, and the guy who picked up the phone had a Russian accent....
