OP said they logged into their account and went to the security portion of the portal. So one can assume they're the ISP or I don’t see the point in asking how Comcast would know the info.

It's not exactly clear from the StackExchange post but if the end-user is also using Comcast as an ISP, then I guess the modem simply re-registered under the new customer and is happily providing the visibility to Comcast?
