Customers getting reset password emails

Description

It appears my customers have been getting reset password emails over the past month. I have security in place to prevent hackers and it does not appear that anyone logs in to change the customers passwords. I also do not see any suspicious logins from these accounts, and the passwords remain the same from the time they receive the emails (I have many of their passwords notated, and I am still able to login.)

I have notifications when someone attempts a password reset, and I do not get emails with these customers resetting their passwords.

This is happening to dozens of customers, with no explanation. No actual password resets, just emails saying they reset their password from WordPress.
