Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.
I bought one a few weeks ago. I am not really knowledgable about photography, but I can tell you that this camera takes really nice pictures. It also has a lot of features, is fast, fits well in my hands, and seems to have pretty good battery life. Go to a store and play around with it. If you need a point and shoot, I think it would work well for you.
Here is a review of the camera if you want to read more about it.
I love Canon, I am more than satisfied with my A520... and Im sure that one would only be better. Canon screams quality IMO when looking for a camera, Ive seen people buy a "awesome 4mp camera" for cheap prices, then get it home and the pictures prove that the camera was manufactured with Lincoln Logs rather then having solid construction and components.
