    I found in the live traffic the following:
    Sweden /?_wfsf=unlockEmail 7/11/2022 5:27:04 PM 62.102.148.68 62.102.148.68 200
    and right before that
    Sweden https://teawea.com/ 7/11/2022 5:26:55 PM 62.102.148.68 62.102.148.68 503

    How is this possible?
    at 5:26 I get the 503 which is correct and at 5:27 I get 200
    I have the following Blocking rule
    Advanced Block IP Range – 62.102.148.64-62.102.148.71 05/04/2021 19:51 tor Permanent 16 11/07/2022 08:26

    Hi @mbeerli, thanks for getting in touch.

    There is a “Send unlock email” input box for an email address on the Wordfence blocking page, and /?_wfsf=unlockEmail is the result of taking that action.

    This means the user was successfully blocked with a 503, then attempted to submit an unlock email, which naturally needs to be a 200 successful in order to submit. This is the only action they would be able to take from there until the block is lifted (if ever, considering you’ve put a manual IP block range in.)

    Thanks,

    Peter.
