Title: QR Code Plugin
Post by: Sparky on October 12, 2021, 03:14:00 PM

 BEWARE OF QR CODE PLUGIN: Since the news gave a report on scammers getting personal information, stealing money from accounts, etc. with the QR CODE , I thought It would be best to disable this plugin until further notice. It seems all these scammers are finding every little way to get private information using plugins as a guide point. So beware if your using this plugin.

@sparky
I am not quite sure what you mean, as this plugin generates QR code that contains link to listing.

 scammers have found a way through the code to all personal information somehow, as stated in the news report this morning here. I'm not sure of everything either yet, but I will not use it anymore until I find out everything. So just to be safe, I disabled it.

It generates QR on your server based on your data.
