Migrating to FTH4

Your club admin received the instructions to update their admin password to access FTH4. (FTH3 admin passwords will NOT work in FTH4). Follow the instructions in the email and use 'Member sign in' in the top right corner to access the Club Admin account.

If you are not sure who the club admin is, in your member account; look at 'Club Officers and Members' > "Club Email addresses". The LAST item in this list is the person who is currently listed as your club admin.

If this is not correct, please complete and submit this form to change your club admin:

Help! Virus?? Security Breach

11 years 1 month ago

We have had a security breach or a virus attack. Very inappropriate emails were sent from the address of a current member who DID NOT send the emails to some club officer email addresses. Can you help identify the culprit or advise on how to fix the issue? I suggested he change his passwords.

Someone gained unauthorised access to the member's account. That can happen through guessing the password, or through the owner of the account receiving an email with a questionable link in it and clicking on it.

Changing the password is an excellent idea. But also check the "reset password" email link in case that's been changed, and if it has, change it back.

Beyond that, it could be a good idea to check out the PC and make sure that nothing else has been affected.
