Data breach?

[PauSum]

Don't want to set the alarm and I really don't know how this thing works.

I've just received an email from Google (on my Android mobile) telling me that "One or more of the passwords saved in your Google Account appeared in a data breach from a site or app that you use. Your Google Account is not affected."

I took action to drill down to the details and realised that the "site" is this forum. I have of course changed my account password immediately but just want to bring this to your attention. Not sure if this happened on my mobile only (and thus my OffRoadSubaru account only) or not though.

Cheers

Thanks for letting us know. I don't "save" my passwords anywhere outside of my control. BTW I cannot even see my own password in the backend here.

There has been 2 odd IPs accessing your account in recent times and if these are VPN then OK otherwise I will ban:


Reports for both:

I've banned those 2 IPs:

Thanks Kevin. I do use VPN but not of those IP address - thanks for looking into this and blocking those IP addresses so quick!

Just has another look....those are the ip addresses if I changed the VPN location to Singapore
