Humble account hijacked or what?

Closed

I just received a mail telling me "New Steam Account linked" which puzzled me.

It states:-
"Hello,

The Steam account named has been linked to your Humble Bundle account.

If you were responsible for this change, you can safely ignore this email. Otherwise, please contact us at contact@humblebundle.com so we can figure out what happened."

I did not remove the name. It came to be exactly like above. Thus I went and looked at my last purchase (unclaimed to my hib account) and saw a foreign steam account linked. I have since removed it.

Was there some security loophole or anything that could have resulted in this?

Ask the HB support, that's odd. Maybe it has to do with that heartbleed thing ?
