Hmmmm....... I actually thought more people would have received the email. It came to the mailbox I'd given them for "contact me" but not the one that I use for many other coin things.

Ooops......I lied. It just came in on my Biedercoins account. Looks entirely legit.

Well, this is a poll, so I am inclined to leave it open.

For what it is worth, I did not get an email, but I just logged into my account and got a reset notice.

It's a wonder the Mint didn't do this password change on the same day something major goes on sale, such as the Reagan Coin & Chronicles Set or the gold Standing Liberty quarter.

I figured that's why they did it. Seems to me the Ike C & C came out the second week of August when they know I'm going to be on an island with no internet or cell service.

I finally got an email last night, after I had already changed my password, of course.

I always look in my spam email folder, and I haven't gotten an email to change my password.

When I opened the message, it looked like someone was trying to phish my account password info, so I screen-saved & forwarded it to the U.S. Mints catalog email and received a reply that it is a genuine request to reset ones password..

It still doesn't make any sense to me that with all the phishing scams, why would the Mint have you click on a link in the message instead of requesting you sign into your account..
