Not sure which forum to post this in....

 

I got an email today warning of an attempted login from Indonesia. I quickly changed my password. Later I got another email warning of another login attempt. I have 2 factor authentication so I'm safe for now. But if I'm getting the email, does that mean somebody has gotten to my data/password but just doesn't have the verification code or are they are just brute forcing password?

No they haven't got your data they have had your password but you should be fine as you changed it now. Though keep 2 factor authentication on!!!

Please quote or tag  @Ben17 if you want to see a reply.

If I don't reply it's probly because I am in a different time zone or haven't seen your message yet but I will reply when I see it ?
