I have received massage that someone just tried to open my account and failed. Did someone have similar problems?

since it was you, Bones, I would suspect that the perpetrator has a very small selection of models he wants in on, probably star trek ones. maybe if you all pool your info you can figure out who it is?

More than likely a spambot.

Apart from the forum's own inbuilt security, it's always safe to change your password often and to something utilising a variety of digits (upper and lower case, numbers, odd symbols, etc.).
