Is someone trying to hack my account???

PamAndJim · 02-27-2013, 07:07 PM

I have 4 emails this afternoon saying that someone has tried unsuccessfully to access my acoount. It's not me because I am always signed in on my phone, and I am obviously signed in now. So, what's the deal? Shoyld I do anything?

It's not a Tapatalk issue.

Was a sitewide problem with logins as a result of some backend issues.

Should all be resolved now.

Same here. Locked out all day. Got a notification email with the IP address trying to login on my name. Tracking came up as a private IP that wouldn't give a location.

OK, now I feel better. Luckily I wasn't locked out. That would've freaked me out even more.
