I believe this was a Phishing attempt to get you to give out your username and password.

You may not have had this problem but if you aren't careful you could be hacked.
There was something similar, but on another site. I was looking for some Toontown Screenshots where I found a site and at the top it said "Click here to play Toontown Online", I clicked it on accedent and it brought me to the log in screen. I was about to log in, until the top of the site caught my eye and it wasn't the Toontown site. And if any of you do this and it redirects you back to the log in screen, don't think it was your computer, CHANGE YOUR PASSWORD RIGHT AWAY, because the username and password get sent to some guy's e-mail and he is in control.
