I am assuming if the bad people can intercept your emails they can intercept your calls, that's why I put tin foil over my phone ![😉](//twemoji.maxcdn.com/2/svg/1f609.svg)

No, becasue GT had none of my personal information, just an email address that does not link to the house.Blackstuff wrote: ↑Tue Apr 30, 2024 9:15 am After the Guntrader leak this is all surely defunct anyway. Everyone who wants to know, can know![]()

I was similarly careful when registering with GT - nothing personally identifiable. Then I watched as an RFD entered ALL my details into their GunTrader sales\stock control system when I purchased a rifle. Wasn't impressed... :(Polchraine wrote: ↑Wed May 01, 2024 12:17 pm No, becasue GT had none of my personal information, just an email address that does not link to the house.

It was my understanding that if you were on their books your location was plotted by your IP address and a 'dot' kindly assigned to you by the hunt sabs who set it up, regardless of what personal information you didn't fill in. It might make you a little more difficult to pin point if you live in a heavily populated area but anyone with half a clue about surveillance, or even just a lot of experience being around people who shoot, could pick you out from others.
