Security Code Text Spams

★★★ Newbie

I have been receiving Security Code messages for the past few months and it hasn't stop even after I changed my password.

 

I am inclined to believe there is someone trying to spam log in to EA accounts or at least my account through bots. 

Has anyone got the same problem?

 

These text messages comes in english and even russian? Can EA fix this or can I even do anything about it?
