Captcha at login?

My browser / operating system: MacOS Macintosh X 10.11.3, Chrome 49.0.2623.110, Flash 21.0 (release 0)

The wifi in my local area has been very jumpy recently, and because of this Scratch has loaded as a no-CSS HTML page. When I tried to log in, Scratch asked for a Captcha code as well as my username and password. I would upload a screenshot, but because of my wifi I find it hard to right now.

If the page loaded as a no-CSS HTML page, it sounds like what really happened is that some internet issue prevented the website header from loading. That can make the website seem simple, like this:



If this is the case with you, refreshing the page should fix the problem 95% of the time.

To check, are you seeing something like this screenshot?

Yeah, Scratch looks pretty much like that. But that's not the problem. The problem is that Scratch asked for a Captcha at login, which it doesn't usually do.

It looks like if someone is trying to steal your password.

that happens if you fail to enter a password a lot. But maybe this isn't the case. I kinda agree with asivi. Someone may be trying to steal your password.

Try logging in somewhere else and change your password


And btw Scratch is safe against SQL injection so nobody should be able to steal or “hack” your account

If you failed a lot times to login,then this will pop up to make sure a bot is not stealing your password
