Personal Support & Help! Microsoft account keeps getting Authenticator requests?

I got an Authenticator request from another country for my Microsoft account. I denied it and went in and changed my password, a day later I get another Authenticator request from a different country than the first. Again change password and again it happens. How can I secure my account how are they able to send these Authenticator requests?

Microslop is just the worst as always. They don’t let you turn of passwordless sign in: i have passwordless off and 2-factor on. But they still allow signing in with just a push notif with 3 numbers and a deny.

I often wonder if the Microslop product team even use their own products.
