Re: Security needs to be tighter in the classifieds section

the fact is that the contact information is too readily available to people who just want to copy and paste the email and set up a scam. what ebay does is create a random 6 digit number generator where the sender has to input the numbers to send the message. or at least safeguard your email address. imagine if someone got a hold of your email address and took advantage of you. just stating that security is a tad loose and ought to be fixed. there are many people who value this forum, and many people who take advantage of it. scamming people discourages alot of people from using the classified ads.

Our inventions are wont to be pretty toys, which distract our attention from serious things. they are but improved means to an unimproved end, an end which was already but too easy to arrive as railroads lead to Boston to New York
