Dear Gazwag,

Someone has tried to log into your account on North Stand Chat 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: 141.101.98.174

All the best,
North Stand Chat

Do you use tapatalk by any chance? I keep getting this message and its a glitch not a hacker.

It's not someone trying to compromise your account. It's a "feature" of part of the setup currently. I'll be trying to get it back to normal over the next week or two.

This has happened to me too (5 times overnight) - should I be worried @bozza?

As above - no.

I'll try and get this 'feature' resolved over the international break.

I had a glitch with Tapatalk for a little while with logging in. I could not post as I was not logged in but when I logged out, (as I was logged in according to my status on Tapatalk) and logged in again I was still unable to post, which is a conundrum.
