Warning to the Site Administrator-

Admin,

I received notification that someone attempted to log into the site using my account 7 times, and failed.

If the site is hacked or spammed from my account, it wasn't me!

I will change my password to something more complex just to be safe, but I wanted to let you know.

I received the same failed login notification twice, and changed my password.

The failed login notification should have included the IP address of whomever attempted the breach. Please PM me those addresses.

Angry site attempted hacking?

I also received notification of a failed attempt to log in. There was an IP address which I traced to St. Petersburg, Russia. Why would someone try to hack this site. What is to gain by that?:
