thecoinguy1964 Pillar of the Community United States 1315 Posts	Posted 12/15/2016 10:36 pm I went to open that coin on ebay, and was immediately hit with a pop up saying I'd won $200. Of course I didn't bite. Was this a innocent breach or a purposeful attack? I see the post has been removed. * Moved by Staff to a more appropriate forum. * Edited by thecoinguy1964 12/15/2016 10:37 pm Report this Post to the Staff

Fuzzy317 Moderator United States 14463 Posts	Posted 12/16/2016 07:34 am let me clarify the above statement. I don't know if it was an innocent breach or a purposeful attack. Once that thread was removed, this thread in its original place would have no meaning. Report this Post to the Staff
Jake the Dog Valued Member United States 226 Posts	Posted 12/16/2016 07:44 am I was actually using the ebay app on my phone yesterday, just browsing. And I got that same pop up. This was around 1800 last night. Report this Post to the Staff

thedollarman Pillar of the Community Canada 4911 Posts	Posted 12/16/2016 10:19 am i dared opening the link 3 times to see if it was a one off or what, I got the $200 pop up, it wouldn't let me close the tab, then it tried a download or something that my laptop warned me of and gave me the option to terminate..this happened each time.
