Password reset notifications

    I’ve received nine emails in the last hour notifying me that someone has requested that my password be reset. Is there something I can do about this?

    Site: (email visible only to moderators and staff).
    WP.com: Yes
    Correct account: Yes

    Hi @cordell, they must really think this is their account. Sorry about that!

    For security, you don’t really need to do anything, though if you haven’t already you’d be welcome to enable 2FA.

    Otherwise, if they don’t give up with the reset attempts soon, I’d recommend creating a filter in your email program so you don’t have to see those. Just be sure to turn the filter off should you ever need to actually reset your password that way.

    That is good to know. I haven’t received any notifications since then, so I guess they gave up. Thanks very much.
