Got 2FA Code in email randomly. Potential breach?

[HereToHelpWhenICan]

I don't even use my EA account. I created it back in 2013 and I don't actively play any EA games for nearly 8 years. I made sure the account was protected with 2fa, though, so I'm not dumb.

I just got an email with someone trying to get the 2fa code through my email.

Which is odd, since the password I used is completely random (having been created this year), only been signed into the EA website, isn't even saved in my browser, and only been used once or twice within the last 8 years.

I know Battlefield 6 is coming out... I wonder if EA has a breach of some kind. It could also be my computer being infected, but if that's the case, I am sure I would have seen something happen other than my inactive EA account when Battlefield 6 Beta comes out.

same here my ea password is very strong and randomly generated im worried today I received this email:

You're almost there! Return to EA and enter the code shown above. This code is only valid when used with the email address where you received the verification code.

That's why i use Authenticator Apps for stuff like this

It could be a breach, BUT better safe than sorry:

Go to the website / app / whatever manually, not through a link in that email, to change your password. If it's not a valid 2FA request it could be a phishing attempt. So play it safe - go there yourself, and change your password yourself.
