[Notice] Regarding Origin Accounts: Reverting changes after trade!

[Reav3R]

Greetings,

EA has made some security changes recently, in which they have provided the ability to reset the email back to the previous one after it has been change. Users should be warned that if they buy an Origin account from an untrusted source, he or she is able to reclaim the account instantly by using a link he or she gets in his mailbox.

After an Origin Account's mail has been changed, EA will send an email to the previous email address which a link which can revert the changes made to the account. Using this email, scammers are able to give you the account, wait for you to change information, take your money and then reclaim their own account instantly. On the bright side, you could do the same if you go first on your Origin account and it gets scammed.

Pretty sure the old reset link would still be valid. You can change as many times as you want.
