I apologize in advance in this is covered in another thread / topic or if I'm in the wrong topic.
Had a strange situation last night. Around midnight, my girlfriend received a notification on her phone that I was trying to access her yahoo email. She utilizes the yahoo app for her samsung S7. She was not at my place and I had just returned home, was tired and getting ready for bed. I do not have a screenshot of the message she received.
I know I wasn't trying to access her yahoo email so my first thought was that her account username and password were compromised but they couldn't breach her two factor authentication. What doesn't make sense to me is that she is saying the message states I was specifically trying to access when I wasn't. Without a screenshot I'm not sure about the exact message. And I'm not sure if it was referencing my name exactly or my network's name. I've already changed my home network and router but I'm looking for additional ideas as to what might have prompted this security alert.
Thank you for any help
