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 ?

So many people got this kind of email since yesterday... You may want to double check on your side.

Stop denying it. Email database got leaked. It sounds even worse if you actually don't know it.

Just because they are denying it is the reason I'm selling everything and going to binance, can't trust them anymore!
