I just had an email from arbtalk saying someone has just tried logging in to my account 5 times with the wrong password. And that they have been prevented from trying for at least 15 minutes by arbtalk.

 

Anyway, not sure what to make of it to be honest so I thought I'd ask if anyone had a similar problem on here? Thanks

It's an automated and random hack attempt. Nothing to worry about and it's unlikely their software will attempt the same account twice. As always though please make sure your password is reasonably sensible

Had the same on another forum. They gave me the area code or something that I tracked to Italy.
