It always pays to have differing email / profile names for various things such as social media (and in this case) Casinos. Given you no doubt participate in their various threads, a hacker could be targeting you either by guessing your email and or user profile name and sending a fake, but real looking email.
Now days for free bitco.in I use an email that only used for that single purpose freebitco.in. either my registrar sold my data, or it was stolen,'leaked.

I also received several messages that says to reset my password but I just ignored it as I only use freebitco to earn some free satoshis at that time so I am not worried even if it will be hack by the hackers as they cannot get a money from my account.
But for those people who store some money to their account in freebitco it will be best if they will enable 2FA so it cannot be hack easily or they should do some actions right away if they can received emails like this one. And lastly kindly check also the sender as there are many phishing emails also that are spreading everywhere.

Happened to me also before many many months ago. I think Freebitco lists are sold somewhere too because only 1 email account is tied to it. I changed emails though and nothing has happened since but I would always make sure 2fa on the site, or any site that allows it for this matter.

I believe the image below is the same email that OP received from Freebitco.in official email. I received multiple email about request on enabling 2FA to my account even though my account was dormant since 2015. Until now I keep receiving this kind of email and I already raised this issue to the main ANN thread of freebitco.in. Maybe this issue is for those old accounts or dormant account.

Base on the screenshot you give its looks like the email you use is compromise by clicking that link its means you are confirming to enable the 2fa . I am also long term users of freebitco.in but never receive email like this maybe Its there in spam folders. I also aware that my email is compromised long time now thats why I decided to use different email .
Same suggestions for you OP better to create a new one than continue using your old email that already compromise .

That is probably a fake/phishing email. Look at the pattern of the email. Does it contain your username or address anywhere? Do they address you using your email address or name? If that is the case, highly likely its a phishing email. Your email probably got leaked somewhere else (a faucet or crypto related site) and now they are using to send phishing emails acting like random but well known sites. Don't click on the email. Make sure your account is secure and has 2fa enabled. You can safely ignore that email.

I advice that you should take a screenshot of the email received and send it here. I didn't received any email requesting for password reset. It is also possible that you might have use your email on a phishing site that looked like freebitco.in which is not or someone just spoof you.
October 15, 2020, 08:46:36 PM
Anyone know anything? 1 email ,1 service tied to said email, 3 attempted resets (spoof) real? Doesnt matter the email was compromised.
If freebitco.in is hacked for sure there not only one gonna notice the incident but for sure many will claim about losing their information and site balances but since you said it was in your email for sure you are been hit by phising attack and you click those mails received that's why you are been compromised right now.

So a real reset request included IP that I induced
This email in particular hasn't been shared with anything but freebitco.in's website.
You can spoof phish with a real valid looking email these days. (Sender=legit looking)
The reset request that where not induced by myself did not include an IP from the request destination.
The only person I'll personally talk to regarding this issue is wetsuit ,I highly doubt he would sell any of his data.
*the email seemed valid , sender matched previous content formatting, sender name ect. The only differences where the reset request did not have an ip log.*

As you have said, it could be just a spoof. The same strategy the scammers/hackers do with blockchain.com and other known services. They create professionally looked email and will send it to the people under their database.
Verify if the domain email is actually coming from freebitco.in but I doubt it that it's coming from them. Put more information for us to see.

Can you show us the email sender?
If the email was the official email sender of freebitco.in, maybe you become a victim of phishing or your info got compromised without your knowledge. If not, then someone might be trying to lure you.
We should surely see others experiencing the same problem if there's an ongoing massive scam attempt. Reset your password now on your email and freebitco.in account.

Its quite hard to get what actually you are trying to say. I will suggest you to describe in detail and add necessary informations. You can update your topic with the screenshot of the email you got. Freebitco.in have their official account in bitcointalk. To verify the email you can directly contact their authority by giving a PM to them.

Well, as far as I understand the OP posted he/she received an email for a reset even though did not do it.
Reading this matter, --we can't conclude yet since we are not a part of the Freebitco.in team. Perhaps OP will reach out quickly to their support team and ask if there is a scam attempt to this thread, [ https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/freebitcoin-200-freebtcwin-lambo02btc-dailyjackpot32500-wager-contest-320959 ].
If you are not comfortable with this, you can change your password quickly, probably there was trying to have a guess random password from your email account that shown somewhere else or perhaps have typo error with almost the same email address.

It doesn't seem to be a widespread issue so I am not ready to blame FreeBitco.in. Maybe somebody has a similar email address as you and they're trying to get back in to their account.

What email you’re referring for? Have your received one of those email? I don’t think Freebitcoin are selling our email details, maybe its just another hacker trying to hack your account, and if you still have the access on your email and didn’t hard you yet better to change your password now and report the incident to Freebitcoin.
Didn't receive any email as well.
@OP, what is the content of the email you received?
Maybe your email is compromised but not due to freebitco.
You can check the sender's address, does it come from freebitco's official email?
