I got the same email today:

Someone has tried to log into your account on TV Fool 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: 39.191.59.6

All the best,
TV Fool

Ditto the attempts on my acct on 3/14/15. Seems the dimwit is now trying to access accts that don't post often.

"Someone has tried to log into your account on TV Fool with an incorrect password at least 5 times. The person trying to log into your account had the following IP address: 177.203.124.229"

I Googled the address and it says: "is an IP address range owned by Brasil Telecom S/A - Filial Distrito Federal and located in Brazil"

I'll further increase the p/w strength, that should make life impossible for the dimwit But what can they gain by hacking a forum like this? Spammer wanting to post spam?
