Comment (by sshanky):
I just rehosted a site for a client, and am now receiving emails from the
site stating I've recently requested to have the administration email
changed. I didn't request it, and I've deleted the account the former
admin could have used to log in. I've also changed all other passwords,
and the host has changed.
This is the second time this has happened. The first time, I tried
clicking the link to see if it would tell me the proposed new email that
was requested, but instead it just authorized the change. And I couldn't
change it back, because the confirmation email went to the new,
unauthorized email. So I changed it directly in the database and now know
better than to click the link.
I am trying to figure out how these emails are being generated...any
ideas? Email I'm receiving is below.
Thanks!
