This is infuriating that I continue to get this repeats of nine and more possible hack attempts from the same certain IP addresses blocked by Malwarebytes, which I get popups every time it happens. This is a snapshot from my logs after one has happened, and I also save text file logs of it.

From what I can tell, they appeared to be originating from Linode almost every time and when I tried to file complaints with them, they keep claiming it is a security researcher or something and end up doing nothing about it. I’m currently wondering what to do about this as I have a folder of so many save logs of it on my computer.

    It’s more like an inbound connection that is triggering the alert.

      1. You are seeing the logs on your pc, if the connections are hitting your pc then your router is not doing its job correctly and you need to look into it.
      2. If you don’t have a static ip set up, try rebooting your router. Most ISPs will cycle you a new IP address.
      3. I don’t think this is really a hack attempt, for one, no one hacks people using their true ip, and you said you spoke to them so

        Well, I just went through some online instructions to setup an inbound rule in Windows Defender Firewall that is a list of IPs to have it block, hoping that will solve this ongoing problem I was having.
