Sounds like the probability of that in this particular case was small but it was, nonetheless, possible.

Well, I'm not sure that I undertand? Something, in this case accessing FT, can nearly always possibly happen, almost anywhere, at any site, no? We take risks each and every day, no? Hopefuly, however, we take care also!
Even the real FT could theoretically do that!
Yet I doubt it!
Or someone could hack the site itself. So....
We all take a chance when we go online, and when we enter a URL or click on a link, I think!
Be prudent and go to flyertalk.com
As I said before above, I'd contacted Randy long ago concerning this specific matter, and he assured me long ago as well that he was well aware of it and was addressing such issues.
Thanks again, Joshua.
Enjoy FT everyone
