  Fellow BrickLinkers,

We are currently closing up to hit order No 25 miljon! What a ride and what a
great achievement from all you members - seller and buyers!

So as a number nerd - if the 25th million order happens to be placed at my store
I will refund all cost and ship it for free anywhere in the world! This offer
limits to an order value of maximum 200 $ or 200 €.

And also - if your store gets it and you post proof in this thread I will give
you 50 % off on an order for you too - up to order value of 200 $/€.

So, what day will it happen? Any day next week?

Also fun to hear if any have had any special order numbers in the past. I don't
think I have but had two orders in numerical order once!

/Niclas

I once got 3 orders in consecutive numerical order once. They all came in within
1 minute.

I put a post about it on the forum but i can't find it.

I remember. If it helps you find more on the topic, Niek showed himself as
the unofficially point man on this topic. If fact, I believe he achieved the
similar in consecutive order numbers. Anyway, the man is very good at this type
of data analyst and expression: https://www.bricklink.com/message.asp?ID=1320396


  
I hope i get the 25 millionth order!!

Get busy buying and selling

It looks like your store only has 6,724 orders. Nowhere near 25,000,000. Do
you have another store on a different site? Thanks very much!

I think they meant the order number which is assigned to each order

Thank you!

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.

Brian

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.
