For some reason when I open Exeweb now, it says it’s “not secure”. Only started this morning - any ideas what it means and whether I need to worry?

There shouldn't be any worries. Only does it to me when I post.

We need to move the website from http: to https.

Been like that for a while for me.

Just don't post bank details and you'll be fine :D

I had a PM from Hants yesterday asking to confirm my DOB and my PIN number, but other than that I’ve not had anything. Hants never confirmed he had verified my identity but I assume everything was OK.

He told me he was stuck in Timbuktu so I've wired him £500 to get home. Panic over.

You’ve been scammed! I know for a fact that he came home last week. Can’t believe you fell for it.

This is in poor taste.

I know someone who was scammed and lost every penny.









He's now in a paupers prison abroad and had to miss his favourite uncle's funeral.
His uncle was very rich and included my friend in his will.
He just needs someone to provide bank account details to enable a money transfer.

And for me. Months.
Only when I log in on my phone; not when using my pooter.

Same warning on the phone when I visit Cricinfo.
