| Anastasia has just updated the info page. Hopefully it will get better
https://www.bricklink.com/help.asp?helpID=2616
"Sellers are required to ensure that VOEC number issued by BrickLink is provided
to Norwegian Customs authorities for each order that contains only low-value
items.
Failure to provide a VOEC number from BrickLink may result in errors and delays
because an order’s value would have to be identified at the border.
How to provide the VOEC number digitally:
Freight by postal service:
Provide the VOEC number (7 digits) via «electronic advance data» (M33/ITMATT
V1.) when booking the freight from your local postal service. Enter your 7-digit
VOEC number in the ITMATT field «sender.identification.reference».
Freight by other transporters, for example couriers, express delivery services:
Enter your VOEC number (7 digits) in the EDI message or via API as directed by
the carrier when booking the freight.
You can find up-to-date information on how to sell goods within the VOEC scheme
to Norwegian consumers here. If you have questions about how to provide your
VOEC number digitally, please contact the carrier of your goods"

| It was like a pager system. It got a few orders processed and scanned by the
post office under ten minutes... so it was working. Any offsite emails were ignored
so everything was logged on bricklink email system. Besides average email lengths
have been trending down in size.

160 chars limit ??? Your're searching for trouble?
There are tons of free plans with no limitations.
I don't recommend the major ones (privacy reasons) like gmail...
But gmx.com for example (I've an address there for 10 yrs no problem), or
any other.
Or for professional use, I recommend subscribing a paid serious service with
no ads etc.
It's worth the $20 or such per year you'll pay for.

Dont press the send button when you see the screen, it already mailed you, clicking

the bottom of a much too long and wordy message and the pin is missing from the
email. Also tried changing email address and that message for pin is also too
long.
So I am locked out

This would have been a better announcement if it had been sent early enough for
me to read it before the change was made.
I didn't read the message board late last night, so when I tried to log on
today I was surprised and mystified about what the heck this was.
|
November 2023 wasn't early enough?
|
Did you read this?
https://www.bricklink.com/message.asp?ID=1459423
Because that was about today's change from opt-in to opt-out.

Oops, missed it by that much. Too much back and forth on that thread for me to
look at.
Yeah, a few days' notice would have been nice.

Canada! We know who, it's Nubs!!!
He was practicing Javascript recently (in short: copy/paste from chatGPT)
|
can it really be called practicing if its just
copy and paste?
|
I think the correct term is “testing”

yeah its a typical scam site. Nothing works but the "login"
My browser wants to translate it from French (despite everything visible being
English) so I guess theres french somewhere on the backend of this garbage. I
guess scammers out of Canada or France. *shrug*

Because they would've to buy hundreds of domains, like bricklinks.net, bricklinka.com,
brick-link.net, bricklinkk.net, bricklinks.org...
Plus some may already be taken and put for sale at $100,000 ea - so no, it's
not easy.

agreed.
Also I don't think it would really stop the phishing. I mean, I don't
think 100% of people glance at the url when they hit a link. I know I don't.
It could be www.yourvebeenhacked.com after you click the link and it would still
get a decent number of victims IMO because I doubt the average user checks these
things.

| Hello again everyone,
Our security team was able to get the original bricklinks.net site taken
down, but we got reports this morning of a new bricklinks.org site and
evidence that phishing emails have been sent to our users, directing people to
this new site. The new site is much more realistic (see image below).
Please log in ONLY to bricklink.com and be aware that an effort is being
made to steal your BrickLink credentials. We will keep you updated if this problem
persists.

Dan Bricklin might also object. I dread to think how many times I have been to
his personal website due to an error.

it anyway?

Yeah, invoice it. If they pay, you were wrong and it was a real order (it could
be coincidence). If they don't pay, start the NPB.

The official Bricklink strategy is to simply link all the similar websites.

need to be patient as they are already a bit behind on projects.
