    Not sure if this is the proper area for this posting ... however, here's a learning moment that I hope will benefit all forum members.

    I had an incident whereby someone requested to link their Tapatalk account to my credentials on another watch forum. My first indication was an email from Tapatalk asking if I permit this user's ability to link to my credentials on that Forum. I immediately denied the request.

    I then proceeded to reset my password on all my watch forum accounts, and specifically with Tapatalk. I would advise a different password on Tapatalk. This is a learning moment that hopefully we can all learn from and get these scammers when this happens.

    So the moral of this story, as we probably already know, is to reset your passwords periodically. Yes, a hassle but a safeguard that will avoid possible problems.
