Just delete the emails and don't worry about it.

Make sure you have a decently secure password. Make sure your password is not your username or 12345 or the word "password" or anything else very common.

Even if it is just lol#101 the chances they figure that out in 10, or 100, or even 500 chances is near zero.

Well, they have tried mine too....23 times lolll

One of the reason why i don't even know my own password over here nor my other 125 ones from different places rofl

People, just use Password Safe and make your pass 12 digits with random numbers,letters etc,etc........and it's free!!!!!

Hope they stop tho, it's freaking annoying for the emails

Yeah same here.. approx 21 emails so far with IP address: 89.77.33.126
Quick check reveals it to be Poland
Project Honey Pot reveals this too, perhaps you can ban their IP ranges?
CLICKY
I have a pretty secure pass but it always worries me when changing them during any form of attack..
Would you consider it to be safe to change it during the attack?

Hope they back off..

Mine just got knocked about 6-7 times as well. I went in and updated my password to something much stronger. At least this was a wake up call for me to use a stronger password as I haven't visited here in quite a while.

IP's:

2.135.237.58
112.5.183.235
78.130.136.18
2.181.177.7
109.175.8.42
222.37.177.243
118.195.65.250
