Something dodgy going on?

[No1newts]

I'm trying to log into my GW2 account, it has asked me to authorise as I am logging in from a different computer/IP.

I'm not doing that I'm logging in from home, now on gaining access to check this (the email account I had linked to the account seemed to have had a changed password so I needed to go in and sort that out!) it says that I am trying to log in from Leicster despite me sitting in Newcastle.

Something dodgy?

Doubt it. IPs can be iffy in terms of region. If it's within the UK I wouldn't bat an eyelid. China... that's another matter.

Cheers, if I get hacked you are now on my hitlist

It's legit, had it before and my IP was the same.

I think you can opt out of it.

There was a blog post about all the hack attempts recently which covers the email verification -
