Hi Everyone,
How are you all doing?
I think I just found some really good information to help with what is going on.
Just found out what maybe causing the passwords and possibly other information to change. On one of my accounts that I just got locked out of, the email address they had down for me was not even mine. They somehow have my mom's email address. The reason we know this is because the password request thing that sites send to the email account, was sent to my mom's account. Now I know sometimes if email addresses are similar in anyway, then people could somehow make a typo when sending an email out. But her email is no where near what mine is.

By using the same network, can that cause account information for sites we use to get changed?

Thanks,
Amy

I would have to say NO. Using the same network should not cause account info for sites you use to get changed.

I also believe that most times when you do one of the Password rest things on a site it is an automated system that sends out the email and not an actual person. Did you by chance sign up for these sites using your mom's email address.

If you mean the same ISP, with multiple email accounts, I would suggest contacting them.
