Did you click on the link in the email to log in? That's another one to be aware of, fake clone websites linked to fake emails purporting to be from the company.

Always go directly to the site using your bookmarks or typing it in, or at least remember to check the url before you click it.

Actually, they only offered a link for enabling 2FA, And yea, I typed the website in. I have a fake name on the account, and I don't have any payment info on there since I'm not playing any of their games. Now I really have to just think of a constant false name when registering accounts.
