Comment on I started to get these daily at random hours, even when I'm sleeping. Someone's trying to hack me?

  FWIW Microsoft does a blind token here meaning they send it if your password is correct or not.

      It’s just login attempt when you’re setup this way.

      It happened to my account AFTER I changed the password.

      I do not believe accounts are setup this why by default and Microsoft does encourage you to use better 2fa as well.

      Requiring a token + password before authentication is attempted is common, the password being entered triggers the token but it doesn’t mean you’re in.

      This is not Microsoft doing something wrong, it’s Microsoft protecting an account that ought to have been protected better.

      OP needs to go in and configure actual 2factor
