Hi everyone!
Geez.. I was so scared yesterday about foxcash. I was experiencing the same problems you're having about the site and whats worse is that I have entered my id and password. Take note ha, not just once but several times. I would enter it every time I would check if the site is already running or not. And the problem wasn't finish yet. Just early today my brother was logging in on mylot and he clicked on my avatar and the window of foxcash asking my id and password appeared again, like it was attached on my mylot account. We immediately logged out and we scanned the computer for viruses. Good thing the pc is free of virus and we have an anti-virus program that automatically updates everything.
I also changed all my passwords for all my PTCs and also here in mylot. Including my paypal and alertpay accounts as well as my email accounts.
I was really scared yesterday. I would have to admit I am ignorant about these things. I'm lucky to have friends here in mylot cause' they are the ones who advised me to change my password. Thanks guys. Really I'm very thankful.
Right now I'm still waiting whats gonna happen next..

I didn't put anything in the box, but I've seen it and I was suspicious about it and didn't log into it. I haven't had any problems. I've got trend micro spyware and virus protection on my pc. It blocks a lot of stuff. I found out quick once I got high speed internet that I needed better protection. Be very careful what you are logging into, even if a site is too slow I close it out, maybe go back later if I want to. Too bad about Foxcash it started out being a good paying site.
