Last night I had notifications of login attempts to my email from various places around the world. It was clearly a hacking attempt.
However, the strange thing is that I only use this address for iCloud, Amazon, and PayPal. None of which I believe to have had a leak, and confirmed this morning on Have I Been Pwned.
Fortunately, I use 2FA and change my PW frequently, so they failed to get in. However, I am perplexed at the source of the attack.
Unless it was targeted by someone who knows me (somewhat unlikely), how did they get this email address?
