Has The Forum Been Hacked?

Post by velocipede6295 »

After a very quiet period on the forum for new posts, suddenly today, there have been around 11 posts on different sections of the forum, all mainly in a foreign language, which I couldn't understand. The new posters seem to have joined today, and I have not seen anything in the posts that relates to scooters. One of the posts I saw was in English, and talked about cash back on various items seemingly not related to scooters as far as I could see.

Has the forum been hacked? :o

We have very good security courtesy of the phpBB software. It looks as though it has been breached.

Worry not, we'll sort it.

Or rather Funky will do the technical bits , while Motza and I sweep up. :lol:

Tanks indeed.
I wake up every morning with a smile upon my face,
My natural exuberance spills out all over the place!
