Great Western Coffee Shop

Oh dear ... a report this morning that the Coffee Shop Facebook page has been "cloned", and a suggestion I warn members to be careful before they post there.

Firstly, I've had a look around on Facebook and the only Coffee Shop Forum page I've found is https://www.facebook.com/CoffeeShopCRP/ which is where I expect it to be,  So it looks to me like there is no problem, and that two links coming up for someone was probably a Facebook glitch as their servers updated.  I can't be certain of that, so do be carful of links that you follow.   https://www.facebook.com/CoffeeShopCRP/ should link via "go to website" to http://www.coffeeshopcrp.org.uk which has our logo, and redirects you further on to our main site.   The intermediate link there is designed to provide the reassurance of a page with the same domain name as the Facebook page before sending you to proper forum content.

But secondly - why would anyone want to bother to clone our Facebook page?   The main site - I could understand (we have great content) but the way-finder page??

I will be keeping an eye open and please let me know if you spot anything odd, but more likely than not, a false alarm about a somewhat underused pointer to us which in any case has appropriate security between itself and our main site.   We do not, for example, allow logins via a Facebook account.

P.S. Technically quite possible for someone to have nicked and repurposed our logo!

Both links work fine for me
