Good work mods, the unsung heros, I'm guessing this takes up quite a bit of time in the background :thumbsup:

Seems like this sort of stuff is getting worse, I've just had a warning from Barclaycard that my card has been compromised on an un-named merchant site, along with many others my Talktalk account was breached and my yahoo's been ransacked. Fortunately I was OK when Ashley Madison accounts were published :wink:
