Fodor's login/password email
 
Hello all-

It has come to our attention that some members received an email earlier today containing their screen name and a "new" password.

Please ignore and delete these emails. Your passwords remain secure and have not changed. We are investigating the cause of this mailing and when we know more we'll certainly relay that information on to you.

We apologize for the inconvenience.

Best,
Katie

Mine got hit and had to use the "new" pasword to get signed in... What gives??? :(

An update: it turns out that this mailing was not the work of phishers as suspected by many of you.

An internal mail error automatically sent out those emails to those members who had EVER requested a new password in all of their time on the site. The "new" passwords are not connected to those accounts; please ignore and delete the email. You do not need to change your password.

So rest assured, all is fine and well. We apologize for the error and for the needless email.

Thanks for your patience in this matter.

Best,
Katie

compac-- the "new" password shouldn't work. Send me an email at [email protected] and we will sort it out.

I'm glad you clarified the matter. I thought my kids have been fiddling around with my account. Thanks!
