26/01/08. STP Returns and Elsewhere More DDOS-attacks

Hi, guys! Today STP finally came back online and I could access the .com version of the site without a problem. But when I tried to re-upgrade in PSTraffic it took too much time to load and so my payment couldn’t get through. Hopefully tomorrow STP will be fully back on track. Anyway, Jamie was able to pay all the pending payouts: “All members who qualify for payments including STP pendings have been processed“. PSTraffic is still one of my top choices though Jamie hasn’t replied to my interview yet. I think I will send him a friendly reminder tomorrow.

Jeffrey, the admin of QXLsurf also was able to process all cashouts today: “Credited accounts for January 24th missed earnings, ran the cron to generate the payout list. I am pleased to report that all payouts have been done. Yes, this includes purchases that expired Jan 26th. SolidTrustPay is back online, but is loading pretty slow. I must have been pretty lucky, most of the transaction ID’s run one after the other. Either that or very determined to send you your funds!”

Larry, the admin of AttractiveAds announced that the payouts to STP may be delayed due to several days downtime: “As you know, STP site has been down for about 4 days. There will be delay in payouts for STP (I will try to process them faster) so I need your understanding and support regarding this. Don’t worry, it might be a little slow but it will go back to normal as usual for STP. I just saw some members have auto-upgraded using STP at our site for today Jan 26th, so it means that STP site is already back online. If you can load STP site, you can try to upgrade now. I still cannot load the STP site from here, but I will continue payouts for other processors as usual except for STP until it is acccessible. Whenever you receive payment, please support us on monitors and forums. Thank you for your time and understanding“.

PimpMyBucks was offline today for over 12 hours. Apparently, DDOS-attacks were directed to all BlackLotus servers using 1st level protection as I couldn’t access any of the sites that were hosted there. I don’t know why this is happening on almost a daily basis. Maybe it’s just some marketing trick from BLCC side to make its clientele upgrade its level protection to 2nd or 3rd? Anyway, the last update from the admin of PimpMyBucks was all about preventing these DDOS-attacks in the future and adding STP soon as their 5th payment processor. Here’s the update: “Yeah it seems our site is under DDOS again. I am sorry for this I’ve already contacted BLCC Dos to move us to Level 3 so we’ll not get anymore downtimes. I’m waiting their answer now. On the other hand I see STP is making progress on putting their site back on track and we’re working behind the scene to add STP payment processor to our script. So soon you’ll be able to deposit using STP on PimpMyBucks. Keep supporting us guys. “What doesn’t kill you it makes you stronger“. I can only add that I was paid my pendings today to AlertPay and LibertyReserve accounts.

I got my payment from BlessingGlobeFund today too but apparently it would not be a wise decision to deposit now because the admin Adiz is seriously ill and it seems he can’t devote his time to the development of the site. The STP option has not been added yet and I don’t think there’s enough money coming in now from LR deposits. I don’t want to say that I don’t trust Adiz but it’s just a game anyway so consider your risks when depositing in BlessingGlobeFund. From the update on MMG forum: “Adiz is at the moment very critically ill. He has managed to process payouts to some members and as u can see he has apparently made double payments. Adiz apologises for the mix up and would really appreciate for members who have received double payments to send it back. He is unable to stay up long and will continue to process the rest of payments as soon as he is feeling stronger to come online again“.

The site Tramael is currently down for scheduled maintenance. This is the letter I received from the admin Nein today: “Tramael server will now shutdown, as it is in process of dropping support, for Apache server v1.3 branch. Tramael server is going modular, upgrading to latest Apache 2.2.8 version. After that is done, Tramael will be back online again“.

The situation regarding the second round of FastProfitPro remains unclear but I have a feeling that we will hear from Dave sooner that we think. Anyway, the update from Dave for those who are interested: “To everybody, FPP is over. It’s done. I am still contemplating if there’s going to be a part 2 and I will leave it at that in the meantime. I believe there are other HYIPs that came out just in time when FPP closed… I will monitor those for now. Remember that one of the reasons I created FPP was to start an honest high ROI HYIP and bring down other scamming admins. I hope that with the new ones that came out, I won’t have to start FPP2“.

Thank you for reading my blog. I’ll see you tomorrow with more news and updates.
