"Failed Login Notification on Kiwi Biker forums"

**breakaway** · 4th March 2015, 20:16

Got an e-mail earlier today about someone attempting to log into my account from this IP address 190.254.1.201

Accoring to google its a known bad IP.

I use a password manager and generate long passwords for each site (something like dX2o2MFbAEMMfHug) so not too worried about being compromised. Just thought I'd check in and see if anyone else got anything similar?

Yep, several have received notifications. Most likely spammers trying brute force.

I got one today 117.169.1.145 in china some god awful place.

**madbikeboy** · 28th March 2015, 08:36

Got a notification this morning. IP addy was 117.169.1.17

If someone does manage to hack my account, you'll know because they'll likely sound more intelligent than me, and they'll use many less swear words.

I don't know. If you didn't know, it traced to Nanchang China. You might be able to beat their engrish. Then again, they promise they don't have any hackers...

It's a spammer from another country, and why is this posted in the racing forum?

Quick! I better cash in my green reps before someone steals them!

How do we know the above isn't a hack job?
