yea, a symbol for Yuku.

I could go to that link, http://writer2be2007.u.yuku.com/dashboard/communities/sub/my/rt/1 ,Cheri and see the same thing in my browser, you have 2 links to Yuku boards: Monkeeland and Aaron's TV one. I don't see the Holy Ground one. I never used the dashboard feature.

At least you use Firefox, that is definitely a somewhat safer browser than...

HI Marnie,

Tonight I encountered it when I was in my profile page in Mozilla browser and I went to my Communities to try to get back to ML without going to a new bookmark. Anyway, the coloring changed again and all of my page is gone. Here is the picture.

Sorry it's so large Marnie

I got a phishing e-mail from "Amazon" once. It looked suspicious so I asked them if it was official and they said it wasn't and to delete it. I think they asked me to send a copy to them first. Maybe you did get a message from "Yuku" but it wasn't the real one, like Marn said.

Hi Cheri,

I am pretty familiar with phishing: most the time phishing happens when you get email or an IM and they entice you to go to a link (fake website pretending to be something legitimate) and you divulge your account information for Pay, eBay, personal info or bank info. The phishers then go and clean out your accounts and/or install viruses on your computer. Sad, but this happens all the time. There is not much incentive for a phisher to spoof a yuku page unless they can...

Thanks for the explanation, Cheri. I haven't experienced anything like that on Yuku, but I have had several incidents when I was unable to view the board or when I could see the main board but couldn't open up individual posts or forums for a while. In those cases I either got a maintenance message or I just got an error message from my computer.

Is it possible that the phishing problem is related to either your computer or your internet access? I am not particularly...

hi LMBT,

Phishing means that people are creating websites to look almost identical to Monkeeland with a very few exceptions (colors might be different, fonts might be much larger, etc). And unless you are good with the computer you might never know.

Say for instance my profile page is all green, well a 'phishing' page has an all white background with HUGE fonts that are blue. At least that's how it's been showing up on my computer.

I am very...

Hi everyone,

I mentioned this in the Yuku suggestions forum, but I wanted to post to you what my help ticket specifically said so that you all can see. Granted, yes we all know I get irritated at things easily and this is one issue I feel is very important. I will keep you all updated on their response to me.
