Okay Ladies and Gentlemen, Let me put all of this into perspective, for the past six years I have been faithfully using vBulletin to create my network of websites - I have had no issues with them and have actually enjoyed my time with them. However recently it has been discovered that they have been handing out information about me to some people who have been e-mailing them enquiring eg: How I paid for my licenses, how many licenses I have, the license numbers, and even a contact telephone number (which has resulted in my mobile phone going off at 3am in the morning). I have hereby decided to make the decision to get rid of absolutely everything relating to vBulletin that I have and opt to instead move to IPS - therefore I am selling everything to do with vBulletin. While there is a lot on offer here I would like to outline now that I do not plan on breaking it all up (eg Licenses, this premium addon and that one) I am only going to sell them all to the person who purchases them and if they wish to break it all up and on sell them for a much bigger profit then they can work on it. So here is what is up for grabs: Okay Ladies and Gentlemen, - 2 x vBulletin Publishing Suite Licenses (one with Branding Free) - 3 x vBulletin 3.8 Licenses (one with Branding Free) - 6 x CompletevB Themes – 3 incl. Branding Free. Total: $329.67 - 1 x Photopost PHP Script – including Branding Free. Total: $278.00 - 1 x vBCover Interviews Script. Total: $49.95 - 1 x vBCover Quizzes Script.

Total: $750.00 As previously mentioned I am attempting to get away from vBulletin and want to move to IPS and hence the starting bid and reserve are set to cover the cost of moving to IPS and purchasing the licenses with them required to transfer my network across. BIN Price is set so that I can hire someone with IPS experience to come and join my admin team to help me set it all up however will take best offer.
I commiserate with you on the leakage of your personal information. Why did IB do it? Are all these licenses fully transferable? All the best for your move to IPB. I have a perpetual license and am happy with IPB.
Yes I have made a complaint to vB/IB about what has happened, have provided information and told them that for my security and privacy that I want to move away and they have ensured me that they will transfer any and all license requests that I put in. As I said I am hoping to sell these licenses and all the addons to hopefully earn the cash to move to IPB and get some help from someone to help me set it up properly. We are still investigating why it all happened.
It is unfortunate this has happened. Why would anyone ask for license numbers, and why did IB entertain these patently suspicious email requests? IB should have told the Phisher to go take a running jump. There is no guarantee IB will not do this again, as I can't for the life of me comprehend the whys and wherefores of this shocking issue. I do not blame you one bit for deciding to break completely away from the company. I am thinking of making a bid but am worried stiff about IB's questionable action in your case. If I decide to place a bid, I'll PM you for more details. Thanks.
Thank you ashtakshara, If you decide to place a bid let me know I will get screenshots etc of the licenses, I just thought I would also let you know that I have the head of customer support looking into the issue now as I said the previous persons answers weren't good enough - so hopefully they will sort it out.
It is good to know that it was not the company but a staff member with vested interests that committed this abominable act. I do hope the company resolves this matter once and for all. Here's wishing you luck for a great bid from a good buyer.
Thank you hopefully I will sell it shortly and will be able to start moving everything to new site. Have been impressed with IB's action in relation to this case - in particular Zachery who has gone above and beyond what I thought they would do. Just need a buyer for this stuff now haha.

Wow that's shocked to hear that vBulletin has leaked your personal information! My gosh, well how can they sink so deep? Not recommending anyone to do business with vBulletin anymore, use IPB or any other free forum software instead!
