  • NamecheapCEO Richard Kirkendall (@NamecheapCEO) reported

    @bytehx343 @Namecheap To be clear, the issue was within a 3rd party provider that we use to send our newsletter. None of our own systems or customer accounts where breached. I sent a follow up email to all users that were affected. The domains linked in the original phishing emails were also disabled.

    @NamecheapCEO @Mayhem_Paul @Namecheap Why ******** does anyone have API keys for an email service embedded in their app...?

  • NamecheapCEO Richard Kirkendall (@NamecheapCEO) reported

    @JaxxArmstrong @thinkverse @Namecheap absolutely not but again it's common practice to use 3rd parties to send email, help desks, even an email system itself. We mostly build our own tools but that wasn't the case here unfortunately.

  • DotWeekly Jamie Zoch (@DotWeekly) reported

    @OnurKocayigit @metaeuropean NameCheap stated they use SendGrid so I would expect a NC user database stored in their SendGrid account or via API in similar fashion. The bad actors would draft the email likely in SendGrid and assign it to a selected DB to send to.

    @NamecheapCEO @bytehx343 @Namecheap I got the same email too....and your follow-up email clarifying the issue. I guess there is nothing to worry about.

  • BeeHiveCyberSec BeeHive CyberSecurity (@BeeHiveCyberSec) reported

    @datacubecom We do as well. Accurate TLDR: Namecheap @ it’s core was not compromised. A 3rd party service suffered a security failure on their own end. Namecheap was notified by us, and we assume others, and promptly responded to us and issued publications addressing the issue and that they…

  • Greenlio4 Greenlio (@Greenlio4) reported

    @Namecheap wtf y’all emailing me lmao

  • Losmemesvirales memes (@Losmemesvirales) reported

    @lemogbenga @Namecheap I clicked on the link. Then a connection error appeared: The DNS is taking too long to respond. And when the page loaded, a captcha appeared. I didn't do it because they never asked captcha namecheap. Have I been infected with any virus?

  • falfolkes Falon Folkes (@falfolkes) reported

    @lemogbenga @Namecheap I got this same email. Luckily I had the sixth sense to treat like a scam. @Namecheap we need updates on this security breach #namecheapscam

  • dboutcert David.A🇳🇬🇳🇬🇳🇬 (@dboutcert) reported

  • NamecheapCEO Richard Kirkendall (@NamecheapCEO) reported

    @marckranat @Namecheap No, we have everything we need for now. All emails have been shut down.

  • realcookgreen DoDoCat (@realcookgreen) reported

    @Namecheap Please fix it as soon as possible.

  • falfolkes Falon Folkes (@falfolkes) reported

    @Namecheap Appreciate the prompt response, but giving the current situation I’d rather not click the link. Hoping this issue gets resolved soon.

    @Namecheap yeah. Thanks. I got a bizarre email from DHL at the bottom it said namecheap. never done business with DHL. so I reported it as phishing.

  • officialss34 Swedenstyle34 (@officialss34) reported

    @Namecheap I almost fall for the phishing attempt from someone whom impersonated @MetaMask, but then i realized that they never sends any emails at all, and then i saw that it was sent my your email.

  • jmbullis James Bullis (@jmbullis) reported from Jenks, Oklahoma

    @kathyzant @Namecheap @SendGrid Just forwarded mine to support. Might need to keep an eye on security during the super bowl. Hackers might think we are too distracted.

  • LMM Ethan (@LMM) reported

    @Namecheap @NamecheapCEO Glad I could help report this issue promptly.
