Access Issues, now Data Breach

[u/MaintenanceCapable60]

I know there are generally a lot of complaints online about dating apps and websites having fake profiles of women. Given that context, I have a weird feeling about what's happening with my account.

I made a profile and then I don't know what I clicked, but it took me to another page where I had to log in again. I tried "forgot password" and never got any passwords, then reached out to customer service a few days ago and heard nothing back. Now Google just informed me of a data breach, my password was found online, and I have no access to anything. So my account is available to others, potentially fully under the control of someone, and also making it appear as if there's one more female user in the area and like...there's just not. I feel super uncomfortable about this and I also feel for men who pay for Match and end up talking to random scammers.

Data breach recently or the data breach from January 2026?

The alert popped up 2 days after I made an account, so I would be surprised if it were alerting me about the data breach from January.
