    I see that we've been hacked -- call the clean-up crew -- fast! And let's all stay away from the possibly poisonous mess in the meantime.

    Account that posted it all is listed as a guest. DTG should disallow guest level accounts from posting anything. And why can anyone post on the rules and guidelines forum?

    And nobody from DTG noticed it so far after a half day, very active in this forums.

    Yep and I reported the first post as spam this morning as well.

    And its back, looks like DTG responded, but did not take action to prevent literally the exact same thing from happening again...At least this is not someone trying to hack into DTG, they would have stolen everything DTG...twice!

    Think this is just abot that creates a user and post. Nothing to do with hacking.

    They just need to add in some anti-spam \ anti-bot security feature into the registration process.

    I know that this has nothing to do with hacking, which is why I said “At least this is NOT someone trying to hack” Read before you comment. (Oh, unless it was the OP you were talking about. Whoops!)

    Being invaded by a robot vs. by a human -- it's still an invasion and here's hoping that DTG is cooking up a plan to put an end to it.

    Oh the OP is indeed. Facepalm on my part. I think this is human caused, otherwise these posts would be everywhere within a minute of eachother, but it is just posting text, not actual security breaching. Unless one were to follow those links and emails in the posts, which are likely to cause a security breach.
