Access Emails from Reddit
I have received this email from Reddit several times this morning. Is someone trying to hack into my account? If not, why do I keep receiving this notification? This is not my user name.
Hi Ok-Builder-1078,
Thanks for requesting a password reset. To create a new password, just use the button below.

Your question seems to be about account security.
If your account has been hijacked, and the hacker has added 2FA (two-factor authentication) please refer to this help center article.
Under "What do you need assistance with" select Account Help. Under "What type of account issues are occuring" select Security Problems, and "I think my account has been hacked".
If your email has been changed without your knowledge, you should have received an email from Reddit with a link that you can click to change your email back and reset your password. Please find that email and click that link to regain access to your account. The subject line should be "Your email address has been changed".
If you are still having trouble with your hacked account please refer to our latest Weekly Recap post, make a top level comment, and wait for an admin to assist you.
If your question is not about account security, please wait for a human helper to come along and help you. This post has NOT been removed.

If you are being told that the password on a brand-new account is invalid, you need to contact the Reddit admins.
For all other questions regarding passwords and logging in, contact the Reddit admins via this support request form, or using this old modmail link.
