Quilting Board not a secure site?
1 Attachment(s)
What is this about?
My Mac computer is connected by a wire/cord to the modem, and the modem is connected by a wire/cord to the wall. My keyboard is wireless. |
I have suddenly been getting a similar message for almost every site I use from my laptop. I don't know what that's about.
|
This board is not a secure/private site & information put here can be viewed by others. This is why you never want to put your personal address, email address, credit card #, etc. on this site as it can be picked up by anyone. I'm not sure how secure/private/safe the PM's are. Maybe a moderator could tell us about that as I know we often share info through PM's.

I wonder that about the PMs also. I located one of mine through a google or yahoo search that showed my phone number.
I have not been able to find that PM again, though, through a search. |

I just received a similar message, "x'd" out then got a pop up to show content. Happens to me often. O was told it was a ploy for an ad to buy software.

I also have the same "message"

The QB sufficiently secure for the type of site we are.
In order to post, send or receive private messages, view user albums, etc. one must log in with a username and password. Private Messages are private. Sites for banks, government and similar organizations operate at a higher level of security. There should be a setting in the software on your specific computer that you can use to verify we are a safe site. |
