Title: Oh crap! ... I forgot my password. One attempt left. Please help!
Post by: kumonk on July 15, 2013, 12:14 am
Wow, I never thought this would happen, but I seem to have jumbled my password a bit.  I haven't purchased anything from the road in quite awhile, but just deposited $400 the other day for a series of purchases i want to make.  It is a mix of two pin numbers that I know very well, but I seem to have forgotten which order the numbers go for my account here.

I have attempted  several times and have only one attempt left.  I'm really worried that if I guess again, my account will be locked out.  Does anyone know what happens once you hit that limit?  Will I be able to try again tomorrow? ... I know that if I had enough attempts I would figure it out because there are only 8 possible combinations my password could be and I could just systematically go through the options.

Does anyone have any advice for me?

Worst case, will I be able to at least transfer my coins out to another wallet or do I need my pin for that as well?

Thanks in advance... what a noob mistake.

Thank you very much.

If I do not get much advice here, I'll message DPR and see if there is a way I can extend my the number of times I can enter my PIN.

I haven't lost hope yet! ... Especially since it can only be 8 possible combinations

You should probably really post it in the support section. Good luck!
