@tvboy55 By what method are you receiving this warning as it could be scammers pretending to be sky trying to obtain enough information to access your account and take it over 

 

did you change the password via any links you received?

Re: Password leak

@SKY1992bf @caesarome Its my apple phone security telling me the password has been included in a leak - changed the password on the sky website , there was no link sent to change it , and acticated two step verification . I am a retired IT guy who dealt with security so I would never click on any random links anyawy .
