webhostingtalk gives away credit card details

Once again Web Hosting Talk fails its members.

If you have ever used your credit card at WHT for a preminum membership or a sticky post chances are your data is now all over the net available for download. What is worse, it has been reported that Web Hosting Talk has illegally stored your CVV and that this is included in the downloads.

If you have ever gave your CC details to inet/webhostingtalk cancel your cards now and never ever give these fools your business again.

Re: webhostingtalk gives away credit card details

spam removed pathetic that the admins of WHT cannot follow forum rules. It does explain why WHT has become the joke of the web hosting industry.

Re: webhostingtalk gives away credit card details

I think what surprised me the most was that WHT needed to restore their forums to a backup from 5 months prior. I expected that they would be better prepared for potential disaster, which the hack pretty much was.
