Beware Of Hackers On Nairaland by Karex81(m): 4:06pm On Nov 18, 2020
I believe that nairaland has been compromised. Some fraudsters or hackers, are trying to get users personal information. E.g when you click on a random thread on the front page of nairaland, a pop up menu ask you for your personal information like username and password, it's all scam. Don't give out personal information.

2014, anyone? Or wasn’t this how it started?
Re: Beware Of Hackers On Nairaland by CuteMike01(m): 7:07pm On Nov 18, 2020
You all should quit opera browser. That's the only solution. Use other browsers like chrome, via and uc browser. I haven't seen such pop up for almost a week now
