Well the fact that they send an e-mail to their users saying how unsecure the site is, doesn't strike me as standard practice.
Heh, posted at the same time as you did, tylerc.

Kinda sad. I actually wanted to do it. Now that I think about it, they had really crappy offers.

I got scammed trading on that site x I dont understand who his site is going under bc of excessive fraud? I guess his network took back credit? The admin was a nice guy though.

[quote2d295bda1f]Our site uses the Project RAFS software, which has apparently been hacked. We are not closing down. We are sorry for any inconvenience.
We ask for your patience while we try to fix things.

Its obvious from the error message and RAFS isn't very secure...

Our site is up and we are not closing down. We use the Project RAFS software, which was hacked. Someone was able to pose as an admin and access our site. They did that and sent a mass email to our users saying we were closing. Then they redirected our site to an offensive site. All of our data is intact. Rather than waiting for Project RAFS to update we simply password protected the admin area through Apache.
We resolved this situation in less than five hours and we hope no one was too inconvenienced.
