X users flooded with password reset emails; company says no evidence of breach
A large-scale attempt to trigger password resets targeting user accounts occurred shortly after X expanded the availability of its payment service, X Money. Many users reported receiving repeated password reset emails they did not request. X said it is investigating and has found no evidence so far that account takeovers or system intrusions were successful. The activity is believed to have generated reset requests using publicly available usernames rather than stealing passwords directly.
