Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.

I just purchased a new U2412M intended to replace my ageing 2407WFP (rev A02). My 2407WFP had no issues (I've had it for 5+ years and I love it), but I wanted to either go...
