The only concern I have is that in my monstrous stupidity I clicked the 2nd link. Didn't lead anywhere (doh!).

Now what? I ran a hijackthis scan - all clean.

Thank you for your input.

There was 1 email, so I suppose he couldn't access another time or simply didn't try.
Looking at my identifier I conclude that it was no accident. You can't just type in that thing by accident.

But then again, I've once typed in a valid private key by accident.

I'll change all passwords and perhaps move to a new wallet.

Cheers everyone

edit: I took a look at the email address, I wonder why I didn't do that earlier. It's a phishing mail. Here's a transcript:

A login attempt to your blockchain.info wallet was made from an unrecognized browser. Please confirm the following details are correct:

Failing to confirm your account, may result in being suspended, according to our terms.





If this login attempt was made by you, this email can be safely ignored. It means you have visited your wallet login page using your alias from an unrecognez browser.
The login attempt was blocked, it does mean your wallet details are compromised





Top Tip
Backup your bitcoin wallet using dropbox. It's free, easy to use and secure.

Hi,

somebody tried to access my blockchain.info wallet earlier today.
I received an email from blockchain with some details about the person, including his/her IP address, operating system and some hardware info.

What can one do with someone's IP address in general?
What do you people recommend I do?

thanks

Hi everyone,

I think it's beyond time for change.org to accept Bitcoin for donations. Do you agree?
They constantly ask for money, yet they refuse to make it convenient to donate.

Thanks
