Serious Issue - Mods and members of this forum need to be notified!

I was unaware of where to put this but I know that this is very important especially to all web hosting companies. I was going to place this in the hosting area but figured that may be against your rules here.

When I had signed online this morning in my hotmail account on MSN, I was told by one of my clients their site had been hacked by someone at a site/company who uses a program that uses C99.php to brute attack your cpanel and then once inside, depending upon the type of account you may have, will take your information that is linked to your account including but not limited to any license (vbulletin for example), paypal account, email account, hosting account or anything else related to you. According to the information provided, this person is UK Based and 15 years old. We have contact the domain registar and also their datacenter of where the account is hosted. I wanted to inform everyone to avoid not only this company but the individual themselves.

If it is ok with mods, I would like to give the company/site and all other detail so that others may avoid this attack as well avoid having their information taken.

 

This belongs in the legal section.

 

I just wanted to make sure is all, Thanks.

If mods here can placed this in the appropriate section, it would be appreciated.

 

If you're planning to post to accuse someone of being a scammer, you're not allowed. If you took part in a deal with them here on this forum, and your deal was for a thread started here, you may leave a review of the experience in an iTrader comment or review post in that thread. Anything else is inappropriate as it's all he said / she said.
