Well, apparently, it’s BL’s fault to let phishers claim they are BrickLink, because
they are like “hawkers out front of your brick-and-mortar shop all day handing
out flyers to customers” and that you can chase by waving your broom in their
general direction 🤷♂️

That comment seems to have gotten gotten under your skin. Why not reply to the
person who made it rather than griping about it to someone else almost a week
later? Unfortunately, as you know, you have misrepresented what I said. That
comment was about forum spammers, not phishers. You are usually so pedantic;
I’m surprised you would overlook such an important distinction.🤷♂️

I am astonished that people could think they would never fall for any type of
scam, especially those that don’t even operate a store here. Most people are
vigilant, but being constantly on guard leads to fatigue. Bad actors only have
to be successful ONCE. It costs them next to nothing to make thousands upon
thousands of attempts, and they will catch you the one time your guard slips
a little. But we have to be successful against EVERY attempt they make and it
costs us of time and energy to do that.
It’s easy to blame the victim until you become one. A major part of being vigilant
is being humble enough to recognize that you too could become a victim.

| | Greetings all,
The spammer emails continue and are now a daily basis. See attached image as
it shows the incorrect email.
@BrickLink: can you please put a banner on the landing page to at least warn
users of this issue.
I'm curious though, is this being done to any/all users of BL or is this
subjective to sellers.

After reading about these, I checked my spam folder and Google has flagged them
all as spam and removed them from the inbox.
There maybe things I (we) don't care for about Google but they do an excellent
job of screening junk e-mail.

| | Once again this precision: the website wasn’t hacked/breached. Some accounts
were.
And there’s only very few of you who are receiving these e-mails.
(Not saying it’s not dangerous or at least annoying. Just trying to put it in
perspective.)
|
Were the accounts that were breached notified that they were?
|
Well, if the account had suspicious activity, then BL saw them, blocked them,
and contacted the real owners. Not necessarily easy to do for some of them who
had their e-mail compromised too (same password 🙄), but I know BL also tried
other ways and managed to reach and verify them.
