larrymcg Posted February 14, 2015 Share Posted February 14, 2015 I got an email from Corsair claiming that someone had tried to log into my account 5 times with an incorrect password. They blocked the IP for some period of time. I changed my password. The IP was for someone in China who is known to try and spam forums. I'm wondering if the email was legit. And what else, if anything, I should do. -- Larry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike_Warner Posted June 30, 2015 Share Posted June 30, 2015 I recently received an email stating: "Someone has tried to log into your account on The Corsair User Forums with an incorrect password at least 5 times. This person has been prevented from attempting to login to your account for the next 15 minutes. The person trying to log into your account had the following IP address: 94.23.30.53" Is that something either one of us needs to be concerned about?
