While 2FA and resetting passwords are always recommended, even when there's no mass data breach, Activision says these reports are inaccurate. In a statement issued on Twitter, Activision writes, “Reports suggesting Activision Call of Duty Accounts have been compromised are not accurate. We investigate all privacy concerns. As always we recommend that players take precaution to protect their Activision accounts, as well as any online accounts, at all times. You will receive emails when major changes are made to your Call of Duty accounts. If you did not make these changes, please be sure to follow the steps provided.” It’s unclear where these hacking reports originated, but they spread far enough for Activision to issue an official statement denying the reports. In any case, if you did receive an email claiming your account has been changed without your knowledge, we recommend resetting your password.
