Just a thought - could this be anything to do with GC Photopages because a while back, dating sites were being added to that.

If any of these going in you Inbox I would report as spam before deleting, then run your normal security Is spyware & virus checks. may be we should all complain to GR to get them to take action and quick, not in a few days/weeks when someones details have been used else where

Thanks for that Steve. It still leaves very large question marks about the confidentiality of this site....XX

Also got a message from a Susan Phillips using a h*tmail addy and it mentions Julie at exploring feelings. There are only three sites that I use this name on and two of them are connected to GR. Maureen

just sent a complaint to GR If the system has been hacked into they should be doing their best to sort it - especially if everyone complains. if they've sold the addresses (which I doubt) they're in breach of the Data Protection Act. don't suppose I'll ever get an answer to my complaint though Barbara

I've just emailed GR to complain. Incidentally, it's not confined just to members who post on the boards - this email gave my husband's name and neither of us ever post under that account or name. Will let you know if I get a reply. Mandy :(

I have not had any - I too am with outlook express. But, I do get a lot of security alerts whenever I first access GR, or open OE whist logged on to GR. (messages to say an attempt to access my computer has been blocked) I don't understand the technicalities of hacking, but does this mean someone can log into GR and then try to access us via clicking on our names and bypassing GR making the contact?

If they can hack into the Pentagon and Microsoft computers they can get in ANYWHERE. Pat

I too received an e.mail, I have complained to genes, and I too will not be renewing.

AnninGlos Report 24 Oct 2006 12:33

I haven't had one as yet (Outlook express), but it could be that GR have been hacked into rather than 'sold' e mail addresses. Worrying though, if they can hack into e mail addresses what about other details - c card numbers, etc? Is there anything (beside the message) common to all e mails? i.e. internet provider? Ann Glos
