    Today I received the email below. Is this spam or is it a valid email from WP.org?

    Hello xxxxx,

    Your password on www.ads-software.com has been deactivated, and you need to reset it to log in again.

    We recently discovered your login credentials in a list of compromised emails and passwords published by a group of security researchers.
    This list was not generated as the result of any exploit on www.ads-software.com, but rather someone gaining access to the email & password combination you also used on another service.

    To reset your password and get access to your account, please follow these steps:
    1. Go to login.www.ads-software.com
    3. Click on the link “Lost your password?”
    4. Enter your www.ads-software.com username: XXXXXX
    5. Click the “Get New Password” button

    It is very important that your password be unique. Using the same password on different web sites increases the risk of your account being hacked.

    If you have any further questions or trouble resetting your password, please reply to this message to get help from our support team. We will never ask you to supply your account password via email.

    The www.ads-software.com Team
