Mystery text from Trip Advisor

Post by cysgod y coed »

Last night I had a text from TA. I have a subscription with HL.
Text said Solomon wanted to book £6.70.
I went to my account expecting to see a request from Solomon, but no such thing.
Reminder text today and then later today a hurry up text from HL.
Still nothing on my HL Mail
Strange thing is that the texts were all from TA, as clicking on the link took me to my HL account.
Anyone else had this.
My rating may now go down as I have not responded to Solomon.
The amount was very odd too.

I wonder if it's the same Soloman as this one?

Love it.
Now that I have clicked on the link does this mean that you have inserted a virus into my computer and I have to pay you £10000 to remove it or it will be forever locked???
Are you Solomon?

Did clicking on the link ask you to enter your password? If so you should change it pronto.

Mystery solved.
I put a message on HL s Facebook page. Soon after I had a phone call from HL . Soloman had responded to an inactive site which I had forgotten about.
He is now coming to stay in my b&b.
Sounds like a nice chap, from Sweden.
