Just got this email from muscle coalition. Please someone let me know if this has happened to anyone else and is it something I should be worried about. It says the IP address is from ST Petersburg, Russia. I am from the states fyi.

Dear 13632334,

Someone has tried to log into your account on Muscle Coalition with an incorrect password at least 5 times. This person has been prevented from attempting to login to your account for the next 15 minutes.

The person trying to log into your account had the following IP address: 188.143.232.144

All the best, Muscle Coalition

it is a brute force attack...what happens is a robot uses username/password combinations until it finds the right combination. Unless they can guess you're combination within the first 5 tries...it locks them out.

If I can pull up the location of this, this easy, you should come up with a few questions as well. Is this the place where the message came from? Is it a relay for the real source? Does the person living here know that their computer did this? Did their computer do this or is the IP address a fake one?

You would be surprised at what you can do if you will spend a few minutes trying to see what is out there. Also be aware that the government can do a lot more.
