Why do I suddenly get push access to a lot of new forks of UE4?

As of yesterday, I started getting notifications from GitHub of a lot of new forks of the UnrealEngine repo, with the comment that I have push access to those repos.
What’s up with that?

This is happening to me as well. I got emails I was subscribed to about 12 forks.

Yes; some kid is messing with gitHub.

I have the same issue. Epic can you look into this?

Epic are, they are in contact with github and have provided a workaround (that may or may not be working) for now: GitHub Notification Spam and Disabling Auto-Watch on UnrealEngine GitHub Forks. - Announcements - Epic Developer Community Forums
