I assume this is how everyone gets hacked on here?



I always here of people getting hacked but haven't learned how it gets done. I'm guessing this is how?

Phishing - only going to get worse. Best thing to do is to send me all of your pieces so I can guarantee your collection's safety.

Sadly the digital scams are ramping hard and fast.

Yep, that's what can happen when you put your email address in your ads.

It's a toughie.

Other than completely forbidding the use of URLs and email addresses there will always be the opportunity for a scammer to create a www.seemslikeTRF.com/login and present two fake empty boxes for members to give up their username and password.
