Unsafe website - online ccw training


I'm ready to get my CCW, and am taking an in person 2 hour course at a highly qualified local range, http://www.nasr.com/. NASR's site recommends using http://ift.tt/2a0wcxj as a good place to take the other 6 hours of classroom instruction required in Ohio.However, and I'm posting here so you guys can keep an eye out for stuff like this too, the http://ift.tt/2a0wcxj purchase site is completely insecure.Their purchase page URL is: http://ift.tt/2adOzCr and it's completely insecure. They are not using an https connection, there is no SSL certificate present; the form is completely insecure. Making it worse, they have several logos on the page stating the page is secure, does use SSL, and is "safe shopping," all of which is completely untrue at the moment.I've contacted both sites to let them know the site is insecure, which is a huge exposure for anyone putting in their payment info. I'm hoping to hear back something positive.In the meantime, I wanted to share here, as I have no idea if http://ift.tt/2a0wcxj is nationally popular or not.But, personal safety includes online security, so - you guys keep an eye out. If there's no https, they don't get your credit card info, period. :)Stay safe! via /r/CCW http://ift.tt/2a0vHDL
