Hi all
Don't mean to spam but know this is one of the busiest sub forums. Heads up apparently some of Google passwords have been leaked. So watch out and change your password. Especially if you use it for other sites.
You can check on link removed for security
Really don't mean to spam but I want all to know. So if you use the same password for your banking. Then be careful!!!!
Regards

Fair enough but bi checked mine and shockingly it was correct for my dummy accounts but not my main amount which I have 2 factor authentication for. But each to their own. You can check my previous posts and see I am a serious forum user. But of course take no responsibility for that link though IT specialists provided that to me0
