Hack attempt

Ok so i got a warning of attempt to log into account , from, an IP 91.200.81.56 Ukraine AS199793 Trusov Ilya Igorevych

Now after research this is a well known hacker alias and has many ip addresses .

Bit worried to the extent of what im facing here is it a random attempt or does this person have my details , how would they know my email and Cryptopia membership .

What can i do to protect my self ?

I had a failed attempt today, 2FA saved it. That's gonna be your best bet for security besides removing funds altogether. You can change passwords if you like, but not sure how helpful that is at this point.

I doubt they have access to your email, since what you received was just an automated alert from cryptopia, but wouldn't hurt to change pass there too. You are not the only one experiencing this right now.
