    Hi there,

    If you’re getting SMS codes for your account, it means someone has already entered both your username and your password correctly on the login form, which means someone likely knows your password.

    Change your account password, and they won’t be able to get to the point where a verification code is sent out.

    I would strongly recommend that you also change the password on your email account, and enable 2FA there as well if you haven’t already, as it’s very likely that if someone knows the password for one of your accounts, they know it for others as well.
