    Why do I not get an authenticator alert when someone else has logged in to my account?


    I am seeing multiple unsuccessful attempt to log into my account from all around the world. I understand my email address may have leaked somewhere and these are people trying to get in and failing. The one I'm most concerned about is the successful attempt which happened yesterday around 9pm. I did not see an authenticator notification to say someone had tried to access my account so how were they able to successfully log in? I have since changed my password but am now very worried that my email account is compromised.

    :)
