This Connection is Untrusted





You have asked Firefox to connect
securely to VaporAlley - Stroll down the alley for great products, but we can't confirm that your connection is secure.
Normally, when you try to connect securely,
sites will present trusted identification to prove that you are
going to the right place. However, this site's identity can't be verified.



What Should I Do?

If you usually connect to
this site without problems, this error could mean that someone is
trying to impersonate the site, and you shouldn't continue.






Technical Details
VaporAlley - Stroll down the alley for great products uses an invalid security certificate.

The certificate is only valid for vaporalley.com

(Error code: ssl_error_bad_cert_domain)




I Understand the Risks

the certificate wasn't configured correctly. Looks like when Rick (or whoever did the site) set it up, they entered the domain as vaporalley.com as opposed to
Code:
 www.vaporalley.com
To you browser they're not the same. It's not a hacking attempt or anything, so you should be ok there. But Rick should probably see about getting that corrected to have what's called the common name of the certificate to be
Code:
 www.vaporalley.com

Stothek is right. Because we redid the site.
The SSL Certificate is pointing to http://vaporalley.com and the "updated" site is at www.vaporalley.com.
Changing the SSL Certificate is a daunting task. (Working on it)

Regardless, all payments are made through a merchant gateway and your information is secure. I can't even see your CC info.
