So I got a message (from woodbarter I think) that my password has been compromised! Is this legitimate? Or a scam? Not being a teckie person, I am skeptical of anything and everything electronic! Marc, help

Let me check to see if that's an option we send out. I highly doubt it, check the senders address for me Ralph.

Ralph, I don't see anything that would match. I think its a phishing email. Report it as spam, and block the senders address.

Well, the next time I logged in, the notification was gone. So I did nothing

Are you using Chrome? I got a message like that about a password for another site and it came through Chrome.

Interesting....I forgot chrome does that. I get that notification every once in while.
But wb doesn't notify us about compromised passwords....
