      This actually happened to me last month. I didn’t get code as well to reset my password, and I had messages queue. I had to email
      Fiverr support to give me more chances to request for code which they did. After then, I was able to request for code via call and I got back into the account. I’m not sure it was hackers. I think it’s a glitch from Fiverr. Funny enough, I get app notifications on messages coming in and I couldn’t reply just like you said.

    This happened to me two times in last week. I was chatting with a customer, Fiverr logged me out and requested to change password. But I was able to do it without any problem... Now I'm scary, should I change my email address to avoid this kind of issue?

    Exactly same happened with one of my student it seems Fiverr Security sucks these days. She is really struggling to get her account back. Customer support is some kind of joke these days

    • @VasilyKichigin
      @VasilyKichigin  4 месяца назад

      Yes, they are probably slammed with these requests and it's hard to really understand what is going on on the seller side. If the hacker got into the account or not...I am sorry that your student is going through this.

    @LancoDwini 4 месяца назад +2

    Yeah true. I got scammed the same way in 2020. They cleared my $200 and Fiverr couldn't do anything about it. It was a good thing that you were cautious about where the mail came from

      I got my Fiverr account hacked back in December and within minutes they connect the payment method which was PayPal which was not available in my country and they just cleared 5k usd and within minutes I talked to support and they blocked my account and when I asked about how the payment was added without a OTP they had no clue but they just ignored my messages a nightmare for me.

    Hello, I faced this issue two days ago in my Fiverr Pro account, but luckily, I managed to recover my password and regain control.
    I informed the support team, and they temporarily disabled my account and flagged it.

      Yes, it might be some sort of targeted attack...I would make sure you have always access your phone number since you will be able to reset the pass without any issues. Also maybe change your email address that you have on Fiverr.
