Word of Warning!I woke up today and logged on to check my email, to notice I had two pm's waiting for me for what I thought was this forum. Bleary eyed I clicked on the link and it opened my inbox and there they were. Fortunatly I noticed the URL and it said fronteratech.com not fronteraowners.co.uk.
Killed my browser and ran a virus check and manually logged onto the forum and went to my inbox. They weren't there. I dunno if it was my computer (even though it found nothing) or wether someone is phishing (copying with a dodgy one so it can steal all your details), but I thought I should highlight it anyway. Easiest way to tell it seems is if the email you recieve says www.fronteratech.blah then delete the emails and go to the forum directly and check your inbox that way. Do not click the link provided Cheers RatCav My members ride For Banshee the Trooper : viewtopic.php?f=46&t=34626 My members ride for Leeloo the Lotus Edition viewtopic.php?f=46&t=60154 Deceased My members ride for Brenda the Bighorn : viewtopic.php?f=46&t=54771
Re: Word of Warning!you must of signed up to another frontera site and forgot about it and they have sent a pm out twice
i got them they were asking for a £10 donation to the up keep of there site at least were free on here and as far as i know always will be unless you wish to make a donation
Re: Word of Warning!Nah ... it was identical to this one ... even down to the FOG symbol and layout. Either way I have nuked all the emails and fortunatly it seems I have avoided any unwanted and malicious software.
As some have suggested it might be a random thing but just wanted to highlight it just in case it happens to someone else who might not get ht worse.

Re: Word of Warning!That is an arm of frontera owners . org & their logo is virtually identical due to it being designed on here,there is some historical "bad blood" on the subject,also Steve1 asking for £10 per member for "site upkeep" is not a suprise to hear
Re: Word of Warning!Just been for a sniff round that site..
http://www.fronteratech.co.uk/ looks a LOT like this site. Dont seem to like us much? As we all have a common interest - why the animosity? Log in as a guest.. and go to... Board index ‹ Merchandise ‹ Stickers, Key rings < stickers pathetic! have a read.. some of the technical bits seem to have been 'borrowed' as well... John You cant polish a t*rd..
But you can roll it in glitter if its broken - fix it if it isnt - mod it!
Re: Word of Warning!The owner of that site was an admin on here a few years ago, he tried to hijack the site and brought it down for a few days and started his own site up, he was not happy with FOG because we would not lower ourselves to his money making schemes and scams, he was as you can imagine subsequently banned by the then owner Pete.
And I still have all the proof here I would not be surprised if he is snooping around here in disguise collecting email addresses. If you havent noticed I dont like him much We are (FOG) a free resource and as long as the Admin and Mod team here are in charge it always will be free and we would not dream of sending out begging letters to the member who make us what we are with their own input..

Re: Word of Warning!Theres only one Frontera site worth bothering with and its this one.
Re: Word of Warning!i got the same email(twice lol) you can tell its a copy of fog but knowhere near as good,the muddy site though is pretty good and theres some good info to be found there,but what ruins it is a group of them slating this forum all the time,i dont know the history but even if i did i wouldnt let some plonker twist my mind.ive never heard the other forums get slated on here before so hats off for being more proffesional some quotes i found funny

Re: Word of Warning!Just took a look at their site and i must say it dosen't appear to be very friendly. Im glad google pointed me here first.
Re: Word of Warning!The only thing that bugged me was the pm for a donation telling me its not alot an i would be advert free other than that the forum was ok and when i questioned this site the reply i got was positive
