Hello there, I just want you give you a quick heads up because one of my websites, the very one I gave you access details some time ago to try some things about the theme that weren’t working properly, after creating a test username with administrators rights for you, has been accessed today and it didn’t have login failure attempts, so he had to be able to see my login details here (theoricatelly, you guys were the only ones able to see those login details).

So PLEASE be sure the details we create are well hidden, in my case I just deleted that account and am using wordfence (the plugin that notified me he accessed my website today) to scan that website.

This is the wordfence message, be sure to block that IP (although it might change nothing).

This email was sent from your website “****” by the Wordfence plugin at Tuesday 19th of April 2016 at 03:17:44 PM
The Wordfence administrative URL for this site is: ******

A user with username “****” who has administrator access signed in to your WordPress site.
User IP: 94.53.216.105
User hostname: 94-53-216-105.next-gen.ro
User location: Cluj-Napoca, Romania

For the rest of the clients, if you don’t need further assistance about newspaper or newsgag theme, delete the test account you have created to be safe.

By the way, you can delete the post, as I don’t see the button and it might be frightening for your customers!
