    I just had an email from security@facebookmail.com saying 'Hi Diana,

    We've noticed that you're having trouble with logging in to your account. If you need help, click the button below and we'll log you in.

    Why have you received this email?
    There was an unsuccessful login attempt on your account. If this wasn't you, let us know.'
    Address given was Meta Platforms Ireland Ltd., Attention: Community Operations, 4 Grand Canal Square, Dublin 2, Ireland

    So I checked that this was a legit email address, but then found advice that if in doubt, check the security and login on your Settings page - and there I saw 'We haven't sent you any emails about security in the last two weeks'

    So, hmm, does that count as an email about security? I'm not sure whether this email is legit or not – I suppose the FB address might have been spoofed . . .
