Hi All,

Is anyone else being spammed with repetitive "Login From New Device"
emails every time they log in - even when not from a new device? They're
a great way of protecting us from the kind of credential stuffing attack we had
recently but only if they're genuine emails. Getting 20 to 30 of them a day
because the "Stay logged in for this browser" checkbox seems to do nothing
will just mean we start ignoring them.

YES! It's very annoying.

All of my cookies are accepted and on, and the "stay logged in" checkmark
has been irregular for years. Now I'm getting the emails even if I didn't
need to log in, just by visiting the site on my phone or tablet or laptop for
the first time in a few hours. I don't believe the site is actually remembering
devices.

Yep! I've received at least 6 in the past 24 hours. My home and shop are
in different locations, so I am getting one every time I move back and forth.


I expect that BL will figure out a way to tweak this once things settle down.

I get the "Login From New Device" emails all the time from eBay and PayPal
too every time I log in.

I haven't received any additional messages for a few days even going between
my home and office.

Yes, it's very annoying. Is there a way to disable these messages? I get
them even when I just visit Bricklink (aready logged in). And my devices are
also the same, I use a Tablet and my PC and I stay logged in on both. The messages
still appear, this seems to be wrong.
Bricklink should only send these mails when we really login from "another
device".

The worst part is how vague they are. Like narrow it down to the city/state/ISP
and the IP address. Most security like this also give the name the device is
using on the network. But telling me someone logged into my account from my
own country is useless.

Also, after I changed my password and logged in on my laptop, I didn't have
to log in with my phone. Same network, and google/chrome pwd autofill, but makes
me wonder.

A simple +1. An Email is sent when logging in from my Desktop PC, another one
when using Brickstores Shop Import on my Desktop PC, another one when logging
in from my laptop, another one when logging in to Brickstore form my laptop and
so on. Please let me disable this!
