Hi @zinn

Are you using or have you used the Malcare Security plugin as these may be requests from Malcare?

Hi,

Thanks your your replies.
Yes i did install the free version of malcare and later decided to uninstall it within a day or two. I actually saw these request if before installing malcare.

Hi @zinn

You can double check with Malcare and see if those requests are from them as we have seen this happen before, even if you stop using their plugin and service.
