Help Forgot S3 Pattern/Code...help

Hi,

My old S3 has been in the drawer for sometime and I haven't turned it on in a while (as I'm on a different phone now). I wanted to browse through it to see what files I've left behind and in turn, I've completely forgotten the pattern. I've also tried every PIN I've ever used and that is not is working either. Additionally, when I attempt to try the e-mail/password reset option it doesn't work (I suspect this is because WIFI is not connected, even though I am able to successfully log in to Samsung's site).

Any ideas on how I can get into the phone?

Thanks

Call Samsung?
 
The pattern screen lock? Yeah you can't get that emailed to you because it only exists in your phone. Only option is a factory reset in recovery. All data will be lost.
