The message is there for a reason... it's not an error message leave it be.

If you weren't logged in at that time... check your cron tab (in which case you were effectively logged int).

If you can't cope with the flood of messages, learn to use journalctl to filter it.

journalctl -p err

display just the error messages.

Hi,

If I get a problem like that from time to time I simply edit syslog.conf to log only warnings and below, i.e. not info or notice.
