Posting links on Autotrader

Post by Zforbes » Wed Aug 18, 2021 11:01 pm

A friend on mine is a member of a Porsche forum and he believes there have been instances whereby cars have been a targetted by thieves learning the location of desirable vehicles using the postal codes found in the web links posted on forums.

Not saying your car is next but I always pay caution when linking cars so these undesireables can't locate my P&J

A tip if you want to be as cautious or pararnoid as I am

can be reduced to just this by deleting back to the ?

Just in case I forget I preset a postal code thats not mine anyway. :thumbsup:

You may be doing this already is so please ignore me :thumbsup:
