Spammers trying to use your accounts

Bartman · May 13, 2013

A site member reported yesterday that someone tried to log in to the site using their username. The site's software allows five tries then it blocks access and sends an email to the user's email address.

If anyone gets a message from the site saying that someone has tried unsuccessfully to log in to the site, please email me using the "Contact Us" button at the bottom right corner of the home page.

Thanks!
Bart

thanks for the link. i didn't realize there were IP banning options in the admin CP!

edit.: that IP address is the one causing the problems here also.

THanks Chris. I typically use IPlocation.net but I like the little map feature at ipdb.at so I can really direct my scorn more accurately!
