Thanks, Linda. We would NEVER sell your information or the email list of subscribers from this site, but unfortunately sometimes people do join under false pretenses and then send messages as members of the community. As soon as we find them, we boot them out and prevent them from joining again with that email address.

I have been contacted several times now by people who claim to have gotten my name and email from this site. They are spammers. Does this site knowingly sell it's subscription list to anyone outside this forum? Has this site been hacked for our email addresses? If not, then it is disturbing to receive email from someone saying they are contacting me using this safety community website. Can you look into this? Thanks......
