Sad that the forum can be hacked so easily.

What makes you assume it was easy?

Or was a “hack” at all...someone signing up for an account and spamming the site is not a hack. An existing FR user with a terrible password that gets exploited is also not a “hack” of the site.

Given the number of posts that were popping up gave that appearance. Of course, my natural tendency was to change my password. Minutes later, we were told not to go that. Ugh.

I can't say for certain, but it appears a few individuals here were duped into re-entering their login credentials through a bogus URL. As someone mentioned, if you're using https logins, I'm not sure that would work as that should prompt a warning message.
