I’ve received 2 security passcodes without accessing the site. Does this mean my account has been compromised?

Hello @Temp20201121g,
Thanks for reaching out! If you have received 2 security codes without requesting them, it's a possibility that someone may be trying to access your account. In that case, I recommend updating your password and security questions as well as reviewing your account for any potentially unauthorized activity. If you need to report any unauthorized activity, you can do so with this Help Center article: How do I report an unauthorized transaction or account activity?
Best wishes!
