Hi, I’ve recently noticed some pins that look like they were created by me, but I’m sure I didn’t make them. I can't edit these pins, and some either lead to a broken URL or just link to an image on my website.
How is this possible? It seems like they’re under my account or connected to my content, but I didn’t create them. Could there be some kind of tool or method being used to generate these pins to harm my account or reputation?
Has anyone experienced something similar? Any insight would be appreciated!

I have my password updated and 2FA.
 
I've been using Pinterest's claim tool, but it doesn't seem to work at all. People keep stealing my pins, and even though my site is claimed, it's not helping. Has anyone had success with this tool? Any tips or ideas on how to fight back against pin thieves?
