I've noticed that I have some users that seem fraudulent in my database (in the wp_users column). And the curious thing is that they don't appear in the users list in the admin panel.
How could this happen?
many thanks

I doubt you'll get any useful answer to this question - you might need to give some extra information about your website, how it works, what features it has and what you have tested so far.– Q StudioDec 30, 2020 at 12:21

Might be this is due to the Spam. Diable use registration under the General -> Settings if you don't need registration on the front-end or use the captcha or other spam protection plugins.
Regarding the backend -> Have you checked the wp_usermeta table if any role assigned to those users or not? Check user roles for those users.
