    I just wanted to make sure this was legit and that it wasn't an attack on the site and now everyone changing their password are giving them their new passwords to get on the actual Ubi site. Technology can be so bad sometimes.

    edit: I went to the site, entered my email address as requested, and never got a prompt to update the password...
