Possible bug - d.o.b and height changed without input from user

This morning I noticed my v02 max was still 49, but was now classed as "superior". I thought this was odd and clicked on my fitness age, which showed 45, yesterday it was 31.5!

Further digging shows my height in my profile has changed and my date of birth has moved 15 years earlier. I didn't change any of this, and there's been no log ins to my account which aren't me.

Seems like others on Reddit are experiencing the same or similar, I've emailed support but wondering if anyone here has had the same?

Today in Garmin Connect using the Android App I noticed in my summary information my weight was wrong. I went into the user settings and my age was 3 years older, my height if I remember right was a few inches taller, and my weight was 13 lbs heavier. I've only changed one stat probably in the last 10 years weight, a few lbs. I was looking on the Garmin reddit forum and noticed someone posted the exact same problem today. Not sure what happened but it seems like there is some kind of back end data bug on the Garmin side?

I was 17 years older, 25cm shorter and 12kg lighter. My stats haven’t been changed for years.

For me it started yesterday, even after changing all data back it is visible on Fitness Age trend: https://connect.garmin.com/modern/report/-28/all/last_four_weeks - probably because the other person entered their weight yesterday. I suspect that adding weight or changing anything what triggers user data (not activities) synchronization potential got assigned to wrong users.

Personally I have not, and also do not remember anyone reporting such case here on the forums, despite that I follow them daily since ~5 years. I do not want to tell that it cannot happen, but if it does, then it is certainly an extremely rare case.
