Did this really come from Ubisoft though?

If you're interested in a product please download and read the manual first.

Nope.. This is your own security breached.

 

You've been exposed on some sketchy list of usernames and passwords, which script kiddies have immediately started feeding into sites.

 

Ubi support is super nice, talk to them and get your damn account back.

idk

If this did come from Ubisoft it does't mean that there is a breach at the company, it probably just means your account was breached.

I didn't use that password with that e-mail elsewhere.

If your password was easy to guess or is common in some dictionary, it will be simple to breach. Always use two-factory authentication and use a password manager to generate your complex passwords.
