timaz996 Posted October 5, 2022 Share Posted October 5, 2022 I received an email from this forum stating a new devise had signed on to my account. From Germany and it showed it had signed on 4 or 5 times. It wasn't me so I have changed my password and selected to have that devise signoff. I do use a VPN but have not been signed on in Germany. So I will be paying close attention to my accounts. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martinvz Posted October 5, 2022 Share Posted October 5, 2022 Tim, Thanks for the info. I have not had that happen and you did the right thing to change the pw. I dislike the number of passwords I need to keep track of and use an app on my phone to augment the aging memory banks. Having said that, I always promote complex passwords for websites, especially ones that gave a personal impact (financial, medical, etc.). Use numbers and special characters.

jacwjames Posted October 5, 2022 Share Posted October 5, 2022 (edited) For some reason I've started receiving email notification of activity on posts I've been participating in. I had not changed my account settings so I went back in and checked and the email notification was on. I turned it back off, but have revived 4 or 5 more notifications. Is this a coincidence hmmm! I just went back in and checked the email notification status, which I had disabled months ago. but they were all checked for email delivery. Not sure what's going on there.

The "new device" notifications shouldn't have affected that. Check it again in a day or two; let me know if they've flipped again and I'll put a ticket in to Invision.
