I reset my password for an old account on Airbnb, server error-ed in HTTP 405 error. After that I could login to Airbnb. But on my email, started getting 100+ emails and currently the number is 500+. Airbnb is seriously getting hacked.

Following up on this: there have been hundreds of incidents of attempted fraudulent access to this user's account. All were successfully blocked by our security systems, which worked as designed.
But we had a bug that sent him a bunch of emails today (one per prior blocked attempt) when he changed his password. That bug is now fixed.
