    Their policy should just be to reset the password immediately and have the user set a new one. This is one hell of a risk.

      That would imply they have to test that the credentials are correct though.

      Otherwise I can just put somebody's user and put some fake password and they would reset it and disconnect the account of that user and annoy him.

    ngl, as someone who's been cryptoscammed reasonably recently, everytime i see one of these posts i feel quite a bit more sympathy for the people who don't understand how to use the internet who do this shit. i did feel some sympathy before but now it's combined with the memory of the feeling of panic and then shame i felt in the immediate aftermath, and also understanding how these scammers are so effective.
