I have learned of a few members who are concerned about suspicious email activity being sent out asking "did you get the package from Amazon", or something to that effect.
I received such an email from one member, and it was NOT the type he would send to me.
I called him and he told me he was hacked into.
So that member had to change his email address.
I was also notified by "AuxWarYearCapt", Doug M., who has his own website that he received a request from FDNY Deputy Commissioner Robert Tucker to join his web site.
But he checked into it and it turns out - Commissioner Tucker did NOT request that.
Apparently other web sites have also been reporting such activity.
So to everyone, just be careful out there.
There's a lot of scamming and hacking going on out there.
