Epassporte now too. WTF!

Ok I think it is becoming more obvious that someone is really trying to break into my accounts. I have had a few password reminder emails from sponsors over the past week.

Now I get sent an email from epassporte that is the following.

Dear David,

Thank You for your email.

In regards to your concern, please be informed that we have removed your
security question and reset your password and you can view it along with
your user ID addressed to you in your external email address which you
registered with ePassporte.

I hope this has answered your query.

If you have any further concerns, please do not hesitate to contact our
Customer Service from the details listed below.

Best Regards,
Kushal.C

----- guess this is the mail they are quoting---------

> Some one change my Security Questions and my password pllease help me as

Then of course I get mailed a new password in a separate mail.

I am not an idiot and there was no links to even click aside from mail to: ones anyways. So I head over to epassporte in a new browser window and yes indeed my old password no longer works. When I do get inside, yup all of my previous extra opt in security questions and image etc has been reset.

Seriously WTF is the point of this added layer of security if someone can get it reset via an email and obviously a spoofed email at that. Only thing I am even glad of is that it seems the client support at epassporte at least do not hit the reply to button on the email and did send to the proper email on file.

I have sent in a request asking for the headers of the email. Also left Michael a message too.
