Question
Watch out folks -- looks like the hackers have gotten smart. Just got about 12 Half Ship Now Emails in my box... that was weird enough to tip me off, as I rarely get more than one or two a day. So....
Went direct to Half to check my sales -- it shows only ONE sold. Unless Half is way behind showing orders -- or the system has gone nuts, I can only assume someone is trying to con me out of books, its a virus, or trojan..... who knows.
I'm afraid to even open them. The file size is the same as others I've gotten, about 68K. I know there is a way to safely open an email, but I'm too leery.....
Since this is the holiday, I'm thinking of waiting a day or two before I open these.... Maybe some new information will come up.
Answer
Can you view your mail online rather than with an email client?
I think that is safer (usually)
Answer
See -- I'm so computer slow... I don't even understand what you just said.
Its a hotmail account... What is an email client?
Answer
I tried to edit the first post... turns out, I can only do so during the first 30 minutes, SO----------
Wanted to say, I happened to remember, Half.com now has a chat board on Ebay, so went there to check on this.
Turns out, there IS a glitch in the system, where peeps are getting multiple emails on a single sale... yes, even 12 - 14.
SO -- definately a good idea, if you have multiple copies of a book, to log directly into half to verify if a buyer has ordered additional copies.
Enough excitement for me, this late at night.... (Goodworks1 -- thank you!)
--------------------------------
Yet ANOTHER Piece of Crap to worry about... it appears the buyer will also be receiving these multiple emails on their purchase... I see on the Half board, one of the buyers emailed the seller to please stop sending the emails... Sh!!!t.... I feel a neg coming on.... bet the buyer will be freaking, thinking her cc will be hit multiple times and I'm on a mission to ruin her holiday.
