Your post is having technical difficulties. Can you paraphrase the warning regarding the Russian highjackers? I'm thinking I should go to the trouble of changing passwords:/

I went to my bank's website this morning and didn't see any announcement. That doesn't mean anything though.

I think I'm going to get in the habit of changing passwords regularly.

My advice is not to post on that thread. There's definitely something wrong there, and all I did was try to copy and paste the message I received from my bank which said they were being attacked by "phishing." They also instructed how to log on safely. I would not try to post there . . . and I'm keeping my fingers crossed that I did not bring a virus to this BB.

Ford, do you mind sharing which bank it is? I'm with Capital One, and there is no warning or anything referring to the latest hacking.

I already did, Ford. So, this info was sent to you by an email?

No, it was at the top of the bank website when I went to log in. It was in a box with red letters. Scary.

I just received confirmation from one of the webbies that the post has been deleted. I wrote the details on my other post. Nothing to worry about. And I'm very sorry this happened.
