Why is other service providers in that DB info. Like Big Scoots? Is that not a hosting provider?
Yeah I didn't post it as an endorsement of self harm or anything. It was about jumping from CC to other providers and sadness of jumping back to CC again.If this had been posted just 24 hours later the context would be so different...
Okay, post the data in question here and let's discuss.Why is other service providers in that DB info. Like Big Scoots? Is that not a hosting provider?

Is this the moment in the movie where I realize there's actually only one hosting provider and go on a quest to expose the truth?I didn't think Big Scoots had any relation to GVH/CC...!?

@ehostlab - Yes, our main website and client area is hosted with Steadfast Networks through BigScoots. Justin whom is BigScoot's part owner is our primary go-to systems administrator. Of course you're in good hands
You just want my cave and fancy mobile... the brainy dude that makes the toys for this is slacking though. It's nothing like it use to be.Is this the moment in the movie where I realize there's actually only one hosting provider and go on a quest to expose the truth?
For some reason that sounds really huge when you pronounce it with a Canadian accent.craplaods of money
Well just to bring this full circle, one of the conversations I had with "Alan" of Acclaimed Host was his quest to find white label support. He wanted to just focus on marketing and let his reseller hosting handle tickets.So it appears BigScoots has some outsourced help capacity... multiple people... Anyone know this prior/familiar/etc.
Wow, that's quite a post. Why is this industry loaded with lazy asses who want others to run their "business" for a $20 month fee? Whitelabel... I mean Jesus popsicle sticks, the dude on AcclaimedHost even brags about being a virtual business, but having a part time officee in Manhattan... GTFO... Parttime every-damn-thing. Sad.Well just to bring this full circle, one of the conversations I had with "Alan" of Acclaimed Host was his quest to find white label support.

Big Scoots' web site says: "We remain hidden in the background providing you with our stellar support to keep your hosting machine running smoothly but never interacting directly with your clients, unless you would prefer we did!"
I pointed that out to him as friendly advice and he stated that he'd talked to them and that last clause is not really true.
Interesting.... cause this is on the other site - someone just sent it to me...So tonight his SVM machine at DO was compromised as well as the WHMCS install at ramnode. Sounds like a inside job. Jon told me over the phone that he lost all trust in his contractors and could not control them. I cant fathom the same password/exploit was used to both machines at different providers.
We're in the process of rebuilding our billing system, we're going start from a fresh server rather than restoring from backups. SolusVM we are still waiting on Digital Ocean to mount a recovery ISO so we can investigate the cause of that failure and also take a full backup. Once that has been done then we'll set about rebuilding that too.
I really appreciate the lengths the LET community has gone to this evening to protect me and arrange for the police to come to my house. I felt out of control at the time and overwhelmed at the prospect of having our billing and SolusVM systems compromised. The visit helped me put things into perspective and realise where I need to focus my attentions.
You don't have to care if you don't want to and I'm not getting on some high horse and demanding everyone else should care about his wellbeing either, but I feel like the least people can do is bite their tongue and say nothing rather than contribute with insults about how he is just an immature attention-seeking kid.Countless of the claimed "they were going to off themselves" for drama's sake and all that crap. I know I should care a little more than I do since it is a human being, but i've seen a good 100 - 200 cases that followed something very similar and it was always just a grab/con.
