Is there any affiliation with this forum and a facebook forum called "CB1100 owners forum?" Through some type of facebook snafu tonight, as soon as I got confirmation of an order I placed with a secure website, I received an instant message on facebook messenger asking if I owned a CB1100. Thinking it was the vendor, I replied "yes". (I had to list the CB1100 as the cycle for which I was ordering a seat pad). Conversation progressed that he thought I was applying for membership with the CB1100 owners forum on facebook. I asked him what my order from Alaska Leathers had to do with his facebook forum? He said "sometimes facebook messenger goofs." I reckon! I have deleted messenger on my iphone and changed my privacy settings on facebook. Whether I stay or not depends on what shows up. Quite often, what I have viewed on a vendor's website shows up on my facebook page--sometimes within minutes. This seems like an invasion of my privacy.
As a precaution, I have been in contact with both Alaska Leathers and my credit card company. Alaska tells me they have several layers of security so not to worry. Bank in essence said the same thing but I'm going to be watching my credit card account very closely.
