Not my call. Contact the site owners. It's the price we pay for increased hacking across the globe.

Just the messenger here. No vested interest in the ownership or profits gleaned from our support of the site.

Annoying for the users, protects the site servers.

Hmmmmm ... So, in reality all of this information about Ford trucks could be really valuable to the bad guy's....... ? The bad guys hack banks, credit card companies, brokerages for financial info... Just because these guys are buying $80k trucks, they must think there is some money in here somewhere.

Yep, popped up for me too, didn't last long though and I only got it the once. Maybe the server saw something weird and freaked out. Hopefully it goes back to sleep soon.

these types of attacks usually occur late on friday (like this one did) so the attackers have all weekend to wreak havoc on the site before the tech guys can try to fix it monday morning.
