Really, really stupid question.

Who is arn?
I see him verifying peoples emails from Steve etc by logging into their email account.
Why is he trusted with peoples passwords and accsess to all their emails?

Oh I see, well that explains why people trust him here then. Thanks
Just hope he doesn't go through all your private emails when on your account

Arn doesn't have access to everybody's e-mail accounts, that one guy probably just gave him access to his so he could verify SJ's e-mail.

Yeah I know. Read my first post
I was just suprised people were so quick to hand over their password, then others were so quick to take Arns word for it being legit.

Sure they are, but if you divulge intellectual product and trade secrets, it's still a crime.
