Since I joined CP, I've had different accounts like banking, twitch & amazon being attacked. Luckily no one got in, I suppose to a robust password, but I'm a little unnerved because they are trying to use both my email addresses.

Anyone else have this issue?

Unless they actually get into your CP account your email address isn't visible, and unless they got into your email they couldn't know what your bank or twitch is, so I can't see how it's anything other than coincidence.

I have to ask, how could someone hope to guess your password within five tries? Maybe they're automated attempts?

Even automated it still doesn't make much sense to me.
