Hackers Target AtomCoupons.com Retail Banner Ads

Hackers are suspected of taking down banner advertisements on AtomCoupons.com website today. This is the second hack job of AtomCoupons & extended family of sites in as many days. As reported earlier, their Facebook page was compromised  this weekend, & today, their Apache served WordPress sitemap was messed up by the vandals

Both header & footer banners were removed. An ugly  black box of categories was inserted in their place

The attack may have been against retail store owners as the OpenX ad zones hosted on AtomCoupons.com served ads for clicks & mortar vendors like Barnes & Noble, CompUSA, CircuitCity, Sees Candies, Sam Ash Music, Universal NBC, WB, FOX, HMV (U.K), & Dick Smith in Australia New Zealand.

Although  the potential lost revenue is great, the affiliate site points out that The New York Times Online Store coupon for 10% off remains intact

The brutal attacks came shortly after AC announced the appointment of Dr. Bruce MacApple, A.S, B.A, M.D, PhD as Coupon Chief . AVG & McAfee have saved the site from an increased threat level recently but one rogue Cyber Bully with internal access to confidential customer service records is all it takes to make an online small business owner feel betrayed, violated, & humiliated

An internal investigation will carry on through the week although the company strongly suspects GoDaddy.com from past previous experience

Suspicious Account Access

Spent the weekend under siege by cyber attack from pirate hackers. They laid waste to my Facebook page. Digital fingerprints all over the crime scene. Police tape gone wild! My “Suspicious Account Access” page offers a clue. The Cyber Bully was conducting his/her criminal activities by Mobile device near Sakura Japan

I’m compiling a list of suspects. The first name that jumped 2 mind  was GoDaddy.com whose previous cyber attacks on me where designed 2 Snuff out my small business enterprise. GoDaddy.com may have sleeper cells in Japan now. I must warn Yoshihiko Noda

Other suspects of similar sinister caliber include Anonymous, or possibly even the Taliban. Intel suggests that top Taliban leader spys have been spotted trading Camels 4 bandwidth with KGB

Once again, the first name that jumps 2 mind is GoDaddy.com so take care Online & be Aware

Backup The Launch

Small business as usual

Late Night. House of Blues. Easter chocolate bunnies peeps, & coffee

Just got off gotomeeting with Mike Michalowicz. Mike’s the author of The Toilet Paper Entrepreneur, he also does sum MSNBC TV show, writes a column 4 Wall Street Journal (DOW), & ready 4 the launch of his new book called Pumpkinhead if memory serves

Any who, Mike thanked me 4 his 30 day free trial of gotomypc courtesy of AtomCoupons.com. I had beanz giving him free gototraining on how 2 backup his Apple iPod. I had made a strong recommendation 2 immediately deploy all mission critical data on either MyPC Backup or Elephant Drive

that’s the very moment when confusion broke out over “the launch”. Confusion in my head like fifty shades of grey!

“…& don’t forget 2 Backup The Launch” i concluded as i wrapped up my gotowebinar

“I always backup the launch on the ramp”, said Mike. “Then i put the launch on the trailer”

“No dum dum! Don’t forget 2 Backup The Launch!”

“Obsidian Launch!” replied mike. “That’s my publisher. My new book is published on Penguin!”

I was mad & wanted 2 throw a banana @ Mr Michalowicz

“Shut up!!! Don’t forget 2 Backup The Launch by DJ Jean, that house song on your Apple iPod!

On that note, here’s a cool song 4 your iPod on Apple iTunes. May bring cheer though i’m still glum. The Singer Jim Reid reminds me of them old times on days like these. Complete Madness, no control or was that William
