I’m getting many, many emails from “wordpress@thenameofmywebsite” that say this:
“[This sender failed our fraud detection checks and may not be who they appear to be. Learn about spoofing at http://aka.ms/LearnAboutSpoofing%5D

New user registration on your site:”

Then they list an email address that is different each time.

I have unpublished the page where people can register but I am still getting these emails.
This has never happened before and I know they are fraudulent. I have wordfence which has been working fine.
I want this to stop – help!

thanks!

I have wordfence

I added akismet now and am still getting these emails.

@hollyehrocketmail-com: This is not a theme issue and isn’t control of the theme. This depends either on your email hosting or your site hosting. Please contact your server or email host for the issue.

How can that be when the emails are from “wordpress@thenameofmywebsite”?

[Mahesh]

@hollyehrocketmail-com: The emails are from your site not the theme. Theme does not control email options. You can switch themes and check if the problem persists.
