[b]Thank you Randy.

Would you (or Dan) also be so kind as to verify that my [b]Punki[b] and [b]fake handle accounts were indeed compromised. There are now some posters who have accused me of having made this up to deflect suspicion from MoreMiles.</font>
I feel comfrotable in saying that it does seem that Punki's accounts were hi-jacked. They have been remedied and are back in working order (and she was telling the truth about me allowing her a second account. I have in the past granted those exceptions when informed up front. Problem is most do it on the sly and I have no remorse for shuting those accounts down when proven). My staff, Punki and myself are clueless as to where the hi-jacking came from. We've tried to isolate the time and the tracks with no avail. MoreMiles is not alone in other Web sites whereby a member may have similar passwords. Some of you may on occasion visit frequentflier.com, ityt.com, 1kflyers which all require registration. I personally (and this is only my current thought) don't think it came from MM, rather an isolated incident because of information gathered over time.

I do know that beating up on Punki will likely draw my ire (she's a member like any other member and subject to the very same respect and protection as any of you).
