It may not have been manually added by you but it exists in 3CX's Global IP blacklist(enabled in Settings >> Security) and that is why you are receiving that message.

Hello ChrisC
Thanks for your help , but i dont see or locate Global Blacklist under SETTINGS.

It seems you are running 3CX v18.

You should be able to find the setting under "Security(Left Menu bar) >> Anti-Hacking".

That is exactly right, having 3CX's Global IP Blacklist will give your 3CX Instance access to a list of IPs known to be fraudulent and blocks them before they even come in contact with the PBX. The best part is that the list gets dynamically updated so you're always protected.
