EA Security Code??

[Fear The Clown]

So something strange happened yesterday and this is the 3rd time its happened since Madden launched this year. I'm playing Madden and my phone buzzes and its a text message saying here is your EA Account Security Code.

Is this indicative of someone attempting to recover my account, likely to get access to my MUT as I've actively posted in a few places that I'm doing pretty well in it, or just simply a bug? Has anyone else experienced this?

Edit: I just went and logged out of Origins and then tried to sign back in and it sent me that same code so I must have turned on the security access feature sometime back. Anyway the point is that if you know my username and my password you'll then have a passcode sent to my phone to complete the sign in process which definitely has me thinking someone has been trying to sign into my account now.

Just log in and change your password. It's not uncommon for people to try and steal accounts. Happens to me with steam occasionally.

Yea i already handled that when i put in the edit. It's just pretty damn scary that someone has my username and password. The last 6 months are the first time the email address attached to that account hasn't had the same password too.
