Is that a hacker or an unwanted feature in Confluence?

I run Confluence for my company, our domain is NAME.atlassian.net - and I have just received a "request to join Confluence". Our emails are NAME.com.pl, and I received a request from a person whose email is NAMErs.com.br - is that person a hacker who bought a similar domain name to trick me and gain access, or is this some feature that matched him to our Confluence just because of a similar domain name?

Hi @tymonomyt and welcome to the Community.

Somebody came across your site and requested access. Whether the intent is malicious or not, I don't know, but there's certainly no 'matching' feature in Confluence. 

It's up to your discretion to grant or deny access but if that's not familiar, simply deny them their request.

If you have a security/IT dept at your company, I'd definitely run it by them.
