HAS ANYONE NOTICED THIS?
« on: May 05, 2013, 06:45:04 PM »
Greetings to all. I was trying to send private messages to some members when I discovered that everyone's email address is juicefoyo@yahoo.com. How could this be? Could it be just the standard appearance of the email on the forum and then it automatically changes to the real email address once a message is sent or what? This is really puzzling to me.

Huh? I'm not sure what that's all about but I didn't see that as being everyone's email address. That's strange.. maybe some kind of HACKER or VIRUS you're seeing there. Let me check this out..

Thanks Sir Tony. Kindly post whatever discovery you make and I hope it would be rectified if it has been caused by a virus.

Sir Tony, that is what I did too. But I was shocked to see that all their email addresses were juicefoyo@yahoo.com. Will try it again now after I have posted this reply.

Acctually there were no email addresses displayed for the members at all. Except for my email address. Now my problem is that I would like to secure a particular member's email address so I could send him a message from my own email address apart from the PM messaging of this forum for the reason that I might include some pictures or files in my message. I find it impossible to do this when I would send a PM to a particular member. Sorry but I am just no good at computers. ;D

You should be able to just click on his USERNAME here and that takes you to his profile and his email should be displayed there.

I tried to make a message also to check whether what happens to you would be same in my case.  In my case there was no problem. I think it is in the computer or network that you are using.  I try searching that e-mail address through google and one result there displays Baguio City ads.  That problem might only be in your network.

That is funny, sir Tony. There is no email address displayed anywhere. Only my email address is there.
