I cannot figure this one out as I just log in and get the account suspended message? Have not sold anything on there for a while?

    Well just found out that my account has been hacked, I checked the login and there is ba$sterd from everywhere loging in. My email must have been taken from their database as I found the same email mentioned on the net. It lookslike audiogon but its audiogon.co.uk and it read "joeabrams started a conversation with you.To see the message click here" When you click the link you log in and it takes you to the official audiogon web site.

    Now my account has been compromised and all audiogon did was suspend my account. The never sent me a warning email or alerted me to anything. Its obvious the guys running audiogon just care more about taking a cut of your money you sepnd than helping you out or alerting you. This scam has been going on for a couple of years it seems so you would think they would know better.

    This is what happens when you waste time on Audiogon. You said it yourself. If the shoe fits.....
    I think these devices are dumbing down our intellect even though we are soaking up tons of pointless information. Our spiritual nature is becoming lost and our reptile brains taking over. Pretty soon we are all going to all interconnected among ourselfs and privacy will be no more .Eventually we become slaves to information with no real wholesome social skills and poor real world interactions and experiences. Were not going to get smarter or advance as a society and this is pretty much all the evolving thats going to be done.

    Well I was driving on a country road last week and the back window just ejected 50ft into the air into a cow field. Now I have duck tape and plastic with the words... Money Pit written in caps across the ducktape. Here is how that happened, I go to a self service car wash and the chemicals tightened up the plastic so when I put the top down it ripped the stitching along a section of the top.

    Ya know....I'm simply speechless at this point. Do you do any research at all before buying stuff ? Any research on what it takes to take care of stuff ? I hope you don't do the same with the audio products you sell.

    Those tops are not cheap...in the interest of saving some coin, because that's a lot of M1 Clic's you have to turn around, take the car to a custom shop and see if they can restich it without having to replace the whole damn thing. Anyone with a convertible....anyone, knows you have to treat those tops like egg shells.
