With the number of data breaches that are happening in the ecommerce world, we've seen a recent uptick in scammers searching for username / password combinations that have been leaked, then coming onto our forums and committing fraud via paypal friends & family.
What we've seen happen is that someone's profile will be compromised, their information changed, and the scammer will then post an ad in our for sale areas for a highly desirable item. They will tell multiple people that it's available, have them send paypal and then continue until they are caught.
Is there a way to have someone put into a member group or have a flag displayed if they've changed their information in the last, say, 72 hours?
Even the ability to have them added to a custom user group for 3 days via the promotions system would help. Something, anything, that we can have show up saying "Hey, this user's info was altered in the last few hours, be careful"
