There could be a number of innocent reasons for this, however there wouldn't be any security issue. Your referral code has nothing to do with the login system, it simply passes a userID which is then used in the registration …

Do you mean your sister clicked on the link on your computer(same computer you play)
if so, that would happen because you are already logged in, it takes you to the home page, if you click a referal link
it won't login anyone,
i'd suspect this is the case, as you were logged in already in a session and she clicked it on your PC
does that solve your issue ?
nah man i sent her the link too her phone at her job like 67 miles from my home and she logged on my account and seet me a screen of it on my account and told me not too refer anyone else cause it let her on my account
i just wanted too let u guys know cause its a slight bit of a security risk im not worried about my account being compromised she wont be back on it i just wanted u guys too address it before it causes someone a big issue
i reckon Ched should have a look at this and reassign as/if needed.
There could be a number of innocent reasons for this, however there wouldn't be any security issue. Your referral code has nothing to do with the login system, it simply passes a userID which is then used in the registration process.
Your referral code would be https://www.TORN.com/304646
This would not allow someone to login to your account.
Then how did she manage too send me a screenshot of her looking at my homepage from a separate phone and iP address that's never logged the account before?
I mean I can send u our chat logs she showed me she was on my account
If she was on your account then it was because of something unrelated to you sending her your referral link, which is what Ched was getting at.
Could be anything, from you logging in on that phone in the past - to that phone using your google account (and using your passwords to login to Torn). Whatever the reason, it would have nothing to do with your referral code. As I don't really have any information to go on, I'm unable to proceed.
