No need to worry. From time to time, automated or manual spammers try logging into accounts but are defeated by your password. Every once in a while, some member tells me it happened like one told me a few weeks ago. If your password is fairly good, I doubt they will succeed. Even if they did get in and took over your account to start spamming, I would block them as soon as I got word or saw their spam myself.

Of course, another possibility it someone thought your screen name was their screen name and tried to log in and failed. The software would automatically send you that email.
