Warning? Why does the "Grade this Franklin" thread try to access credit card numbers

Crazy4Coins

A security program I am running blocks this thread from opening. Don't know why? The link tries to retrieve CC numbers from my computer. This is the only thread that prompts the alert.

Thought it might be worth posting...

I don't know but the only other thread started by the same user is titled "Free wheaties on Ebay no catch". I don't know what the thread says because I won't open it after reading what you wrote.

Perhaps the image is hosted somewhere known to host phishing sites?

Not getting anything here...

Please explain so that non-techies can understand. By merely opening the thread, while not logged in, my credit card info may have been obtained? Don't mince words, and don't exaggerate the potential for harm if this is unlikely to have happened.

Since I am a non-techie myself I can't explain...All I am pointing out is that I have several software programs running that block personal information from being accessed on my computer. When I click on the link, "Trend" which is the progam that blocks the thread, states that the site I am trying to access was blocked because it was trying to retrieve CC numbers from my computer.. As Jeremy pointed out it maybe a website that is hosting the image.

I just thought it might be worth pointing out...Maybe someone here that is a techie can check it out..

FUDGE! I just clicked the thread again, and this time they got my credit card, shoe size, water meter reading, and I believe my toupee "secret" is out of the bag.

Crazy ,

I for one thank you for bringing this to attention -

but you must learn ; that just by opening your mouth, by making a comment , or by sharing something

you know to be fact :

you open yourself up to the phyco paranoids that would just as soon have you strung up and castrated for speaking your mind .
