Yeah--I got a message saying Karia Hurst left a comment on my profile, but there was nothing. And there is no page for this person. It's a fake identity. I think someone has hacked the site.
Yes that person was a spammer and was quickly banned.
Our team keeps a very close watch on our community, but every now and then (mostly overnight) a spammer sneaks in and tries to sell everybody a cell phone.
So sorry for any inconvenience and I hope you all have a great weekend!
p.s. Thanks Michelle for your kind words. Barnmice members are AWESOME too and I truly believe we have the best group of people on the net!!!

I just got an email today, 3/28/09, that she had left a comment for me, but there was none. If she's hacked into Barnmice, has there been any other results of her hacking (i.e. identity theft or other problems?)
no on my part just stated that she had left a comment. I think she tried just to play around and maybe see what could be done on Barmice, but was stopped by the adm
Hi Emmy - no worries.
She just signed in as a member and started posting links to a cell phone site. Every now and then, we do get spammers trying to sell stuff to our members, but they are banned within a few hours. Sometimes within a few minutes.
Security here is extremely tight and Barnmice is one of the most closely monitored sites around.
Have a great weekend!

Hi Shell,
Your market sounds wonderful, and of course your animals must be really good and your marketing as well. I can hardly imagine having presold foals, though I have seen a couple of sites advertising them I don't know how they are doing.
