    This is as far as it goes. Herolo, you've done what you could, it would be much appreciated by me and other members if you stop ruining his thread. Thanks, but this is getting too far.

    I am a previous hacker and I run a webhosting company and if anything its a good thing as it helped me greatly with security.

    However.. the key word is previous.. that is long behind me
    and to be sucessful in one of the most competitive markets on the internet you need to build a good reputation, and the best way this is done is by having customers and letting them experience first hand how good you, and belive me if they feel your good then your customers will be your best advertising!

    A word of fairness, herolo, did anybody complained whether he or she got scammed in the first place? The fact that you are linking 50centhosting to an underground site doesnt mean anything. The fact that you spent 30 minutes to find a clue that 50centhosting is linked to an underground site means that you are all out to ruin him. He might be a hacker or he might be affiliated with those people. Surely, he wouldn't want to ruin his own reputation and business. Webhosting is a business and if he DO take other users DB and sell it, clients could sue him on their part.

    I am sure we would thank you for the warning and I am sure everybody appreciates it, but you have gone too far. In my opinion, you just want to kick another budding webhosting business down so there is less competition.

    Just my 2cents ;)

    First off sense I read this and seen my name,, ( lol )
    The fact that there is evidence that bad activity was done. DOES not prove he is a scammer.

    Who did he scam as far as hosting goes ?
    What proof of that in concrete do you have ?

    It was stated that they are reseller of IwhiC, If that is the case I will look into any ABUSE complaints that are sent to if anyone wants to go that far. I will check his WHMCS with Matt and find out.

    I do not allow nulled scripts of any kind on our servers and wont tolerate it.

    But if that is all you have is a nulled script as evidence then thats not much at all.

    I have personally not seen anything else about this host and most likely what happened in the past is in the past and as one person stated WAS involved in such activities.

    Nulled scripts don't make him a scammer, No more then stealing MP3 off LimeWire.

    I would really appreciate herolo for his efforts in cautioning fellow DP users from this loser (IMO anyone who rip others' hard work for fun or money is a loser)

    As far as Nulled Scripts, he can cover up saying he has no funds or want to test it out fully before buying or any C&B Stories. But breaking into someone's website is not cool. It stinks. Kudos to herolo.

    Oh.
    We trust Jacob don't we :cool:

    Though, how can you be sure that darknetic is indeed QKrun1x? Not rebutting your point, just curious.

    Regards.

    You know, I think the best course of action now,
    is to perhaps invite his clients (if he even has any after this whole hoo-haa) onto DP to clear the air.
    They should know if darknetic aka QKrunix has ever sold or divulged their information.
    Then we may, perhaps know if he is what you make him out to be.

    PS: Why doesn't 50centshost have a privacy policy hmm?
