Repeating bogus New Custom login URL alert

  • Hi-

    We’re getting a repeating message (30 emails in last hour) saying:

    Attention! You have changed the login URL! The new login URL is: https://oursite.com/xyznew

    This is wrong. We did change the login URL, but to something more like https://oursite.com/abcnew

    The latter URL works, the former returns a 404 error.

    Our WP-Cerber log showed a suspicious activity entry several days ago from a user attempting to reach the bogus https://oursite.com/xyznew URL. It showed the attempt was blocked.

    We have tried re-setting the login URL, got one message accurately reflecting the change, but subsequent messages reporting that we’d changed the login URL to the bogus one, https://oursite.com/xyznew.

    How can we make this repeating message stop?

    Thanks!

    Update – we note that the messages say, “This message was created by WP Cerber Security 9.5.7” even though we are running WP Cerber Security 9.5.8.

    We’ve run a complete scan, de-activated and re-activate WP Cerber, all to no avail.

    There doesn’t seem to be any pattern to the time between messages. Sometimes we receive several in a short time, then hours may pass before another.

    Anyone hazard a guess as to what’s going on?

    Thanks.
