Question Email stating that my password had been changed

The other day I received an email from MBWorld that my email address had been changed to sldfj;sla!. I did not request a change, nor had I been locked out.

I can still use my old password.

Does anyone know what happened?

Hi,

I have no idea, can you forward the email to me please? You can change your password and email address from your User Control Panel via the link below, thanks.

Thank you, the email is from Benzworld.org not MBworld, I know it can be confusing.

The owner of Benzworld is Vertical Scope whose central database was hacked resulting in millions of records being stolen. As a result of the attack Vertical Scope reset all user passwords. We are owned by Internet Brands who has maintained their Vbulletin versions and security updates. Did Benzworld notify you that your email address and password may have been compromised? Thanks!

Bob..
