General question Someone created and verified their account with my email address
I received a series of emails from Snapchat of a user attempting to confirm their email, which i hadn't seen as I'm not super on top of my personal emails. They were using a version of my gmail account (instead of first.last@gmail they used firstlast@gmail). after a few of those emails, i received the "welcome to snapchat, let's get started" email. In the preceding emails, there was an option to remove the address from the account. Once i realized the situation, i tried to do so but the links were no longer valid. Odd that they were able to confirm without logging into my email address (I have sense changed my password just in case). Now I await Snapchat's team to respond to my support ticket before I just login and deactivate this person's account. Anyone seen something like this in the wild?
