This was taken from the Bizzy-Searchin- Freebies site.Bizzy-Sear...posted: Mon Feb 11, 2008 7:14 amThere is a message going out to different advertisingand suggesting that you join a new group called GROUPLY. This groupclaims to help manage all your and you will get asummary, at the end of the day, telling you what is going on in allyour groups.IF YOU JOIN THIS GROUP, they use your ID and password topost "mass mailings" (can be junk, can be porn) and send them toanyone, and since it's YOUR ID they are using, others will think it iscoming from you.For instance, you could get an email CLAIMING that it came from"amystica3" and it really is not from this group. I couldget an email, with this mass mailing, claiming it came from me, and itwould NOT have been from me.Again, IF YOU HAVE JOINED THIS GROUP called "GROUPLY" IMMEDIATELYleave Grouply. Then go into your account at:http://groups. / mygroups and change your password. Som have posted that this will help. Unsubbing from that groupwon't make a difference (but I think you will want to then possiblyrejoin) but you DO NEED TO CHANGE YOUR PASSWORD.By joining this group you have also exposed all your groups, groupmembers and group leaders to hacking of their emails and groupinformation.Because of this problem, some groups are removing all members witha email grouply.com. This is the only way to protect all the members.This is how Identity theft gets going. They now have your realemail, your emails, any emails listed in your andcan mail as you in and out of the .I hope you understand what is happening and will take precautionsto protect your ID.I have also heard that grouply.com sells your information oncethey have it.
