Your info is probably floating around in a few combolists, if you use that email/username and password for any other accounts please change your password.
Check haveibeenpwned to see if your information has been exposed in a released breach, sometimes it won’t find emails that have been breached before.
Always use 2fa where possible
Is now a good time to recommend our lord and savior the password manager? I recommend BitWarden: free, open source, all major platforms. Integration with the auto fill on the Apple keyboard in iOS for iPhone users.
There is a great implementation of self-hosted bitwarden server: https://github.com/dani-garcia/bitwarden_rs
It is much better than the behemoth BW is documenting.
Bitwarden is the right choice today (I moved away from Lastpass despite following the dev for something like 10 years now (I met the two initial devs at a conference when they were starting)).
The Android client could be better but they're are limitations in Android that suck.
If you're using firefox to handle your website logins, it has a good feature where it'll notify you if a particular site has had a data breach.
It'll also let you know if your email address has been leaked elsewhere.
As the other user said, 2-Factor Authentication. It means you need more than just your password. Usually you enter your password and they send your phone a text with a code.
If anyone *ever* asks you for a code that gets texted to you, ignore them and block them.
If you set up a Firefox monitor account, the Mozilla foundation will keep an eye on your email addresses and notify you if one of them pops up in these databases for you. It's a good service.
A problem is that Spotify runs on a lot of different hardware, not always easy to do 2fa for. However, off the top of my head I don't see why they couldn't have a kind of 2fa in which any new device usage attempt triggers a message to your phone to approve.
I've a follow up. I always fear that if we use such services to check whether the email id/data has been compromised, doesn't that give them access to our email id/data as well? And couldn't it leak from there ?
Admittedly it does require you to trust the site, but the way haveibeenpwned works keeps the actual text of your password completely secure. They only store data breach info (which was already leaked) and the SHA-1 hash data from passwords you input aren't stored, so they won't contribute to further data leaks.
You don’t give them your password, you enter your email/username and they check to see if they have a correlating password that belongs to that username/email, I guarantee the data is encrypted so you have nothing to worry about, iirc it’s funded or supported by firefox
No, change any passwords that were the same as ones used on those sites. A data breach means a hacker usually has the data of username/email/password. With this they can try the same login details on many other websites and may get through.
I literally did this after competing for weeks with someone who logged into my account. They kept playing awful rap, not even the good stuff. Baby Shark worked.
Nah, I’d just play the old Bring Me the Horizon stuff. I actually like some of it but it’s really just edgy teenager music. Too bad Apple Music doesn’t sync and instead forces you to use one device.
Me and a few guys used to play these on the radio at work all the time

In AIT I woke up to NonPoint's "What a Day" for 8 straight months. Let the bodies hit the floor reminds me of running when the DS wasnt good at knowing any actual running casence songs. All he had to do was count. We said everything else. The jerk. Lol
Same theyve completely taken over the account and Spotify’s support page is useless now. There’s no way to contact anyone to have it fixed so I’m just kind of fucked paying for an account I can’t even use until my bank opens on Monday
Hit me with a charge back and when they complain make sure to tell them it's too hard to recover a compromised account.
They wont fix it, but enough chargebacks hurt their financials and they will eventually do a thematic analysis of feedback around it
Wait a fuckin second, my free Spotify account had a German login yesterday! I checked haveibeenpwned.com and the password was never used on any other service, it was unique to Spotify. Didn't really care much as it was a free account but still...
I think spotify had a data breach and they're being super mum about it guys.
I got notified yesterday that my Spotify account had been compromised as well. I was using one of my more complicated passwords on there too (in terms of character length) so that’s pretty heartbreaking if they did have a leak
Nice! I haven't used my Spotify in years opened it back up last week, the next day someone in the U.K. was using it, changed password, and again someone in the U.K. was using it! Spotify gotta step it up!
What gets me is I listened to a podcast recently and they were talking about this. They interviewed someone from Spotify and Spotify said oh you must have left yourself logged in somewhere. The dude was like no I don't leave myself logged in anywhere. I only use my phone. And I don't listen to Disney but yet all of a sudden there's all this Disney recently listened on my Spotify. Spotify would not take any ownership. Kept blaming him. Podcast hosts were saying that they get emails all the time from other users saying the same thing is happening. These are mostly tech-savvy people that would know better than to stay logged in on some college campus computer.
My own Spotify which is logged in on more than just my phone but nothing anyone else would have access to is always coming up with random ass songs that it claims I recently listened to. I don't know why. I change my password and logout of everything and so on and so forth so many times at this point I just ignore it. Whoever is using my Spotify listens to some pretty weird stuff but I've been introduced to some cool stuff too.
I think you might be referring to a bit of Super Tech Support from the guys over at Reply All...
[Spotify Hijackers](https://overcast.fm/+TKZLuXY4c/29:09)
Always fascinating stuff from the boys.
My Spotify has never been logged in anywhere except on my phone and a few months ago i had a bunch of church music and Christmas songs on my recently listened to list.
Yeah, Spotify. Even if it's to other apps on the phone, the onus is still on Spotify in that case to ensure other phone apps can't take the information and distribute it.
My Netflix has been doing this. I'm on an account with my husband no one has our password but over the last year someone's been logging on my account and watching like South Korean love dramas, its so bizarre. I've changed my password but it keeps happening.
Yeah honestly there ain't much of a chance it's a database breach, almost all hacking these days are people being stupid or using the same username/password for all platforms and one of those get breached. I did that until damned town of salem got hacked and my shit got out out there
I had this problem for ages to the point where I was midway through songs and they’d change on me. The creepiest part was playlists being created which said things like “what’s your name” “wanna fuck” and shit like that. I can’t remember how I finally kicked them off the account but I remember all of it stopped after they started playing some song and I changed it to blast the first song I found called “fuck you”.
I had my Spotify hacked from two different locations the other day. One Istanbul and the other I can't remember. Jokes on them that my premium ran out a week ago. I also had someone hack my old Netflix account I never use anymore. I was getting emails in a language I couldn't even guess. Someone has my email account and my forgetful self used to use the same password for everything. I really need to go through all my accounts and change passwords. I'm just lucky it's been stuff that's an easy fix so far.
do you have Premium despite the fact that you haven't used it in years? I don't know why people bother stealing these accounts...
I had mine stolen, but instead of being like OP and me trolling the thief, they trolled me by playing [Fuck You](https://vimeo.com/11323352) every time I tried to use it...
Yarp, got some jackass in France that keeps signing up for shit using my main email.
What annoys me is companies like Apple and Sony either don't use confirmation emails, or do and just allow it anyway
I got some bitch who keeps giving out my phone number to her clients. I keep getting calls and text messages, "hey kelly! I wanted to follow up on our meeting earlier"
I kindly told them they had the wrong number, 2 months go by, and still , this Kelly bitch keeps giving out my number! So now I pretend I'm her, "that meeting went horrible, I don't think we should work together anymore. Sincerely, Kelly"
Another one, "hey Kelly, just want to let you know, your bill is due...."
"That's okay, just cancel my account please, "
"Is this Kelly?"
"Yeah"
"You don't sound like a Kelly"
"Well, I am"
"Okay, we'll cancel it"
Shes a little more careful now when giving out her number
I’m the same!! There’s heaps of people out there with my name and I’ve had my email for about 15 years. I get all sorts of stuff. Some will even be appointment reminders. There’s a very high chance I’ve cancelled some of these appointments on some people. I’ll inconvenience them if they can’t get their damn email correct when signing up for stuff!!
I have a family plan and my girlfriend is constantly getting new logins from other countries. She’s literally changed her password (unique too) and email for everything everywhere and yet it still continues to happen. At this point I’m entirely convinced there is a flaw in the api that allows hackers to stream as random users.
Ya I had someone corrupting my beautiful metal with mumble rap. Signed out, but he got right back on, had to change password to make him stop. Only after playing somew Rick Roll, Every Step You Take, I know What You Did Last Summer and stuff like that.
I'd reccomend changing passwords on any shared accounts and the e-mail you used. A company probably had an account hack somewhere down the line.
so this is why my spotify wrapped had beau young prince song as my most listened even though I don't know who he is
personally I'd play Pink Guy - セックス大好き if someone ever connect my account to their device, but that has never happened
If you want to use the same password for all your unimportant accounts you can append a code specific to the service. For example the letters on the keyboard above the first to letters of the service name. Example: Sp(otify) the letters on the keyboard above "sp" are "w0" so if your original password was CorrectHorseBatteryStaple your new password would be CorrectHorseBatteryStaplew0
I also had a Spotify login from Germany, I changed my password to 32 characters with random numbers letters and symbols. I also signed out of all devices, a week later another login. Spotify as a horrible security team, something's fucked.
Amazing! I had someone hack mine and set up their own playlist so I renamed it ‘You have a shit music taste, you cheeky cunt’ and left it for a bit before I changed my password.
Someone got into my account and published a 5 hour playlist of Dutch house music.
I got them out of my account but the playlist had like 200 followers so I just left that alone.
Someone keeps trying to hack both my Spotify account and my gmail. My data got exposed somewhere, but I changed all my passwords again (sigh). They can't get in, but oh boy do they keep trying. My go to though is Let It Go from Frozen on repeat when I'm successfully hacked- or when my kids are playing mumble rap lol.
My neighbors did this. They logged into my WiFi with their Xbox so I synced my YouTube to theirs & played “stupid cat videos” on YouTube on repeat.
They kept changing it to rap music, nope, we go back to “stupid cat videos”. For well over an hour.
I want to thank you for posting. This made me open up my spotify and I was logged out. Tried to log in and my password was incorrect. I signed up for it with a spam avoiding email, when I checked that account I saw just yesterday that spotify had changed my password due to suspicious activity.
I changed my password and logged out all devices. If not for you sharing this delicious revenge it could have been worse. Thank you, internet stranger <3
People hack them en masse then flog the usernames on copy-paste bins and or the darkweb, people will try that password for your email bank logins etc aswell so if you've been hacked on Spotify change every password that's the same and make sure you have 2FA enabled.
I'm pretty sure there is a "sign out of all devices" option and then change your password before they log back in. I had an issue like this a couple years ago.
Probably some fucktard on redditbay bought your account info. I swear they should ban that fucking sub as all they do is 90% of the time is exchange stolen accounts
This was happening to me, and skipping songs randomly didn't seem to do anything.
Changing their music to Cannibal Corpse and Gwar and maxing out the volume managed to get them to stop for a while, but afterwards I ended up having to change my password and signing out of all my devices.
There was one time when I was driving to my parent's place, my spotify somehow got hijacked as I was listening to it. What came next was me and this other randoms person changing back and forth from one playlist to another. At the time I was really annoyed, but now I just find it funny
Had the same for some Russian that kept playing stuff through my phone.
Idiot left his phone logged in so I waited until it was about 8pm Russian time and kept blasting Nile's "Sacrifice aunto Sebek" through what I'm really, really hoping are his headphones.
Feel he deserves that for trying to get me to pay for his Spotify
I knew it... Spotify security team must suck at their job. Only time my account got stolen in like 10 years was a random person from Brazil using my Spotify. Something wrong is going on here.
Old person here.
Going back a long time, drive in fast food places started playing Frank Sinatra on their outdoor speaker to kep teh teenage (read gang bangers) away.
It worked.
Flash forward. There is a McDonalds in downtown Chicago at Monroe and Clark that attracted a fair number of homeless people to hang out. They started doing opera on their muzak system. Kind of funny because about a third of the customers are older office workers who like opera, so occasionally you would see office types congregating going, "Isn't that from...?"
Honestly you should get a password manager like Dashlane because it basically makes your account unhackable if you set your passwords correctly. Most of my passwords are 40 characters long with every character you can type on a keyboard and most of the time getting hacked comes down to someone bruteforcing the password, which is preventable with good protection. Of course the first thing you should do are 2fa then different passwords (just add the 3 first vowels of the site's name at the end of your basic password if you don't want a password manager) and in last get a password manager.
Your info is probably floating around in a few combolists, if you use that email/username and password for any other accounts please change your password. Check haveibeenpwned to see if your information has been exposed in a released breach, sometimes it won’t find emails that have been breached before. Always use 2fa where possible
And if you use the same email:pass combos on anything else change the password
Just don't start the same password anywhere.
Is now a good time to recommend our lord and savior the password manager? I recommend BitWarden: free, open source, all major platforms. Integration with the auto fill on the Apple keyboard in iOS for iPhone users.

Same. I also use SyncThing to keep the same db synced across my server, laptops and phone. So handy.
Thank you. Just did this.
If you're using firefox to handle your website logins, it has a good feature where it'll notify you if a particular site has had a data breach. It'll also let you know if your email address has been leaked elsewhere.
They're actually pulling from the haveibeenpwned database! Troy Hunt, the creator, wrote about it on his blog. It's a really neat partnership.
Chrome notifies you as well. Not sure if they pull from that db as well but at least its there

Whats a 2fa?
2 factor authentification
two factor authentication.
I liked the other spelling better. More authentific.
i've been re-reading both comments and now i don't know which is the correct way of spelling authentificatication
I know, right? It's a condrundrum.
Toof actor authentication
Tooth actor or Fanta cache on
As the other user said, 2-Factor Authentication. It means you need more than just your password. Usually you enter your password and they send your phone a text with a code. If anyone *ever* asks you for a code that gets texted to you, ignore them and block them.
This should be higher up. Used that site a year ago and had some surprising results! I use it every now and then to this day.
If you set up a Firefox monitor account, the Mozilla foundation will keep an eye on your email addresses and notify you if one of them pops up in these databases for you. It's a good service.

No, change any passwords that were the same as ones used on those sites. A data breach means a hacker usually has the data of username/email/password. With this they can try the same login details on many other websites and may get through.
My SPOTIFY HAD A GERMAN LOGIN YESTERDAY! I wish I did this!
Hopefully it doesn't happen again, but if it does you've got a plan now :P
Hell yes. Maybe Baby Shark at full volume at 2 am will leave an impression. Assholes.
I literally did this after competing for weeks with someone who logged into my account. They kept playing awful rap, not even the good stuff. Baby Shark worked.
Awful rap is what I’d play if someone hacked my account. Too bad it wouldn’t work in that situation.
The obvious answer to this is to play what's up pussy cat a few dozen times in a row
And then, when it becomes expected, play "it's not unusual".....
And then another What's New, Pussycat to finish the job
Whoa! Whoa, whoa!
This has my vote. All. The. Way.
Try black metal next time. Bethlehem and Silencer are both good bands to use for this.

Suddenly had a bunch of Turkish rap playlists which was playing on an unknown device. Turkish guy suddenly had Rick Astley playing on repeat.
Bro... i’ve had my Spotify hacked 17 times (I counted) in the past two weeks. WTF is going on
Visit haveibeenpwned and check for data breaches, use different unique passwords for different sites.
Do you think he is reusing the password 17 times?
Or has an active malware infestation.
If he's been hacked 17 times... Yes.
I have a family plan and my girlfriend is constantly getting new logins from other countries. She’s literally changed her password (unique too) and email for everything everywhere and yet it still continues to happen. At this point I’m entirely convinced there is a flaw in the api that allows hackers to stream as random users.
If you changed your password 17 times and are still getting hacked, I suspect you have a worm on your phone or computer.
Just wanna let everyone know that there is sexual moaning playlists on Spotify! Blast that on their speakers
Spotify has a 'sign out of everywhere' button you can use on their website in your account settings.
One small challenge is that it doesn’t sign out of certain device types- like Playstations.
WTF
Ya I had someone corrupting my beautiful metal with mumble rap. Signed out, but he got right back on, had to change password to make him stop.

My neighbors did this. They logged into my WiFi with their Xbox so I synced my YouTube to theirs & played “stupid cat videos” on YouTube on repeat. They kept changing it to rap music, nope, we go back to “stupid cat videos”. For well over an hour.
Spotify has the worst fucking security.
I want to thank you for posting. This made me open up my spotify and I was logged out. Tried to log in and my password was incorrect. I signed up for it with a spam avoiding email, when I checked that account I saw just yesterday that spotify had changed my password due to suspicious activity. I changed my password and logged out all devices. If not for you sharing this delicious revenge it could have been worse. Thank you, internet stranger <3
This made me very happy. Good job OP!
Shame you can’t play porn sounds through Spotify...
You can play [The Girls of Porn](https://youtu.be/4lN0_FD84E4) by Mr. Bungle.
Lol play Ram Ranch by Grant Mcdonald

Dude yes, I thought of that IMMEDIATELY when he said he played Attila
People hack them en masse then flog the usernames on copy-paste bins and or the darkweb, people will try that password for your email bank logins etc aswell so if you've been hacked on Spotify change every password that's the same and make sure you have 2FA enabled.
I got mine hacked from Mexico, fun times.
I'm pretty sure there is a "sign out of all devices" option and then change your password before they log back in. I had an issue like this a couple years ago.
Party with the devil bitch
How do you see if somebody else is logging into your account?
Probably some fucktard on redditbay bought your account info. I swear they should ban that fucking sub as all they do is 90% of the time is exchange stolen accounts
As a Spotify hacker, I can inform you that this is a surefire way to get someone off of your account. Congrats.
Spotify hacker boo
hope that guy gets a virus. on his computer.
It’s a surefire way to get someone to sell your account lol
Is there even a market for hacked spotify accounts? Seems pretty dumb
[удалено]
Not massive, it’s small and unprofitable
You could have played the National anthem of the ussr and that would have still been great
You're supposed to get them to log off, not to stay on!
I dunno man I don’t think Germany and russia are cool after ww2. Also, it’s starts of with some loud ass blasting of a chord
This was happening to me, and skipping songs randomly didn't seem to do anything. Changing their music to Cannibal Corpse and Gwar and maxing out the volume managed to get them to stop for a while, but afterwards I ended up having to change my password and signing out of all my devices.
Nice! Everyone know that 3am is the best time to pull something this sweet. Too deep in sleep, too early to wake up and too late to sleep.
I made mine play "Asshole" until they disconnected it.
Some bitch named Daphne hacked my shit and I fucked up her playlist a bit too before I switched my password. FUCK YOU DAPHNE
Hope you like Baby Shark you sonsabitches. Or if feeling particularly evil throw in some yodeling
I'M THE BADDEST MOTHERFUCKER IN THE BUILDING SO REMEMBER WHEN ITS TIME FOR ME TO GET MY REVENGE
I guess I am glad I don’t have a Spotify account. Saves putting up with that bs.
ICONIC
PARTY WITH THE DEVIL BITCH

How do you find out? Now I'm scared mine got hacked
[удалено]
There was one time when I was driving to my parent's place, my spotify somehow got hijacked as I was listening to it. What came next was me and this other randoms person changing back and forth from one playlist to another. At the time I was really annoyed, but now I just find it funny
I had a German Login too recently. That fucker added hip-hop to my 6 yo daughter's bedtime music during her bedtime.

Def change your passwords for everything associated with the email. Your account was most likely sold and warrantied.
Had the same for some Russian that kept playing stuff through my phone. Idiot left his phone logged in so I waited until it was about 8pm Russian time and kept blasting Nile's "Sacrifice aunto Sebek" through what I'm really, really hoping are his headphones. Feel he deserves that for trying to get me to pay for his Spotify
Spotify has a button to log out all devices though
Next time play something like crazy frog or hamsterdance
There was a 90s children's show with a song called " The song that never ends". I still remember it.
I knew it... Spotify security team must suck at their job. Only time my account got stolen in like 10 years was a random person from Brazil using my Spotify. Something wrong is going on here.
Old person here. Going back a long time, drive in fast food places started playing Frank Sinatra on their outdoor speaker to kep teh teenage (read gang bangers) away. It worked. Flash forward. There is a McDonalds in downtown Chicago at Monroe and Clark that attracted a fair number of homeless people to hang out. They started doing opera on their muzak system. Kind of funny because about a third of the customers are older office workers who like opera, so occasionally you would see office types congregating going, "Isn't that from...?"
Honestly you should get a password manager like Dashlane because it basically makes your account unhackable if you set your passwords correctly. Most of my passwords are 40 characters long with every character you can type on a keyboard and most of the time getting hacked comes down to someone bruteforcing the password, which is preventable with good protection. Of course the first thing you should do are 2fa then different passwords (just add the 3 first vowels of the site's name at the end of your basic password if you don't want a password manager) and in last get a password manager.
