This may just be a coincidence, but after joining Toluna, my Yahoo email account has been hacked (have received approx. 600 emails of complete rubbish) plus my PayPal account has been used to purchase goods 4 x £50 = £200 out of my bank account. I have reported the fraudulent transactions to PayPal, but Toluna is the only thing I’ve joined & then this happens! 😐

    Pretty sure they were different, but I’ve changed both passwords again since.

    How did you joined toluna ?
    typing the site directly on your address bar or by clicking some link on your email?
    If you joined by clicking some random link, it might be that the cause of your problem since its might you're clicking some phishing link.
