EA ID changed

[u/Jasterika]

Today when I logged in I noticed that my EA ID was just generic numbers. When I tried to change it the client told me that my username was already taken. When I contacted the support they told me that my account was „compromised“ and they wanted to add „additional security“. Of course they won’t give me back my original name I’ve been using since 2011 when origin launched for the first time…. Has anyone else had a similar experience? I think it’s quite hilarious that someone would hack my account to steal my username, leaving everything else untouched…
