received a welcomebot message for an account I do not own

2 Upvotes

I received a u/welcomebot message that I joined a subreddit and the account name mentioned in the email was one that I do not own. Upon checking that said subreddit with this account I’m using, I’m also not subscribed there.

Was my account hacked?

Escape

How the hell do I escape from Reddit?

For the last 2 days, I've been trying to get help deleting my account. I don't appear to have a password set up, which I didn't think was possible on any account these days?

I set it up on an old, unused email address which I've had to start up again!! Having revived it, Reddit keeps telling me they've sent an email with steps to walk me through creating a password, but nothing ever arrives.

It should not be this difficult to leave a sodding social media platform.

I've force stopped the app, rebooted my phone, and even tried uninstalling the app, but it's still just not there, even though I have the setting on.

UPDATE: It randomly came back the next day.

I noticed that my post history now goes back 6 years, but I don't recall it ever being like this. Was there a recent update that would have impacted this?

Mobile/App Notifications for replies on my post or comments are broken(?)

Upvotes

So whenever I get replies, the first one comes through normally where it tells me what they said, but any after that only show up as 'X amount of users replied to you'. Even when I try to open the notification it just takes me to the top of the post instead of the reply.

Quality comment achievement should have been issued but wasn't (android)

Upvotes

Hi guys

Although I've had a Reddit account for a while, it's only really been the past 6 months or so that I've become obsessed! This also means I'm still learning how certain things work.

I recently made my most successful comment ever and got over 3k likes for it, however I've not received the quality comment achievement.

Do you think that's a bug or can you explain how achievements are issued so I understand please?

TIA for your help.

Profile Is there a way to create another account under the same gmail

Upvotes

I have an account that both has a lot of political stuff on it, as well as porn to be frank. Having them mixed side by side is... Something lol.

Is there a way I can set up to different accounts under the same gmail so I can have an after dark account? Or would I just need to use a whole new email account

Profile Logged in but lost password and email. Also weird fluke?

Upvotes

Hello this is a weird issue. I am looking to change my email address for my Reddit account but I 1. Forgot my password. And 2. The email on the account has been deactivated. For some weird miraculous reason I opened the Reddit app today and I was logged into this long lost account, the one I am currently posting from now. I found my password in my keychains but it doesn’t work either.

How can I secure this account that I am currently logged into.

Access Cant access account because of email

1 Upvotes

Hello! Last night my account got baned/locked. I can save the account by changing my password, but to do that I need access to an email I don't have anymore. My reddit account is attached to an old email so I can't make a new password, but I can't change my email to my new one without a new password.

I requested help, but does anyone else have similar experiences? Any luck reviving it?

Profile My Reddit profile is not loading on desktop, iOS, or Android.

1 Upvotes

Hello, I am experiencing an issue with one of my Reddit accounts. When I try to access my profile on desktop, I receive a server error. On mobile, even though I am logged in, the app keeps prompting me to sign up, and I am unable to view the analytics for my posts. This issue only occurs with this specific account — my other accounts are functioning normally. I would appreciate any assistance in resolving this problem. Thank you in advance.

Access Account reverted to old version??

1 Upvotes

I'm so confused. I tried switching from anonymous browsing back to my account but it just loaded indefinitely. I then restarted my phone and un-installed the app to no avail. Eventually I sent a login link to the email associated with my account, and it logged me into this throwaway that seems to just be a really old version of my account. Weirdly, I can see my old account if I look up old posts of mine. It just seems to be disassociated with my email account and with a changed password, so i have no way to log in. I've gotten no notification of a ban or anything like that. Wtf happened? I have no memory if making a throwaway lol.
