Seedsman hack

[med180]

Heads up!
I received an email this morning informing me that seedsman has been hacked, comprising names, addresses and emails of customers from 2018 to 2022.

Same but don’t worry we only buy Exotic Bird Seed …. Don’t we … let’s all nod our heads now .

Well that explains it.

I got this email out of the blue a couple of days ago to the TSE email address.

I have never purchased from them, but have had some email dialogue wth them back late in 2020. So they obviously keep all email address's, not just those that have made a purchase.

I got the same email on the 18th..
With code to sign up ,,,but I was signed up years ago ,,
Making me wonder if it’s legit from Seedsman or from hackers ,,

I received the discount email about then too, then the hacked email today, both came from the same email address. I had a quick look on their site but couldn't see any contact email to compare it to

I didn’t get the hacked one.

Strange.

Very strange. I found it odd I couldn't easily identify an email contact on their site to compare.
