Re: Scam second hand posts on kiteforum - pls report
The scammers are trying to enter kiteforum...but since I check every new user I can eliminate most of them.
But if one slips thru, please report!
Just make sure before paying anything, to have a live proof of the person with the gear!

Great work Toby and you have to stay ahead of them. I saw them ruin another forum so bad they took it down and lost all the historical posts when they started back up.

Re: Scam second hand posts on kiteforum - pls report
Almost every time I log in lately I see "You exceeded the maximum allowed number of login attempts." and I have to verify that I am not a robot. Someone is trying to hijack my logon credentials and access the forum, probably to scam the forum in some way. Anyone else noticed this?
