  • apedotc ape.c (@apedotc) reported

    @AndrewM36013517 @Namecheap External risk (before): External support employees of the domain registrar getting hacked or bribed and manipulate DNS records of the domain External risk (after): No support employees of external registrars have access to the domain

  • rikrdoMat Ricardo (@rikrdoMat) reported

    @Namecheap Please really need support

  • osiris3366 OSIRIS (@osiris3366) reported

    @yng_cruz @Namecheap They admitted to me they violated their own terms of service, but allowed me as an exception to keep my business. Im sure ICANN will be interested in the emails sent.

  • JoshDance Josh Dance (@JoshDance) reported

    @Namecheap tried on my phone and worked. So might have been my connection. Was able to login. Thanks!

    @apedotc @ummjackson @Namecheap Bud, this **** was tried in 2011. I was there. People were mining bitcoin and talking all about blockchain domains. It never materialized because there are too many flaws.

    @Namecheap hxxps://suponsoca22-ba80bc[.]ingress-comporellon[.]ewp[.]live/accesooo/acceso/es/clients/login[.]php nuke it please!

  • lucky225 Lucky225🍀 (@lucky225) reported

    @ww0_cj In the end the CEO acknowledged and paid out and namecheap is more secure for paying attention, but yeah it took a long time for them to even get on to TOTP from SMS 2fa, I hope that attitude changes after the public service and free education they received yesterday

  • mashaheedbd Mohammad Abdus Shaheed (@mashaheedbd) reported

    @domain_research Congratulations! BTW as far as I know, Namecheap is not supported by the Sedo MLS network. Would you please clarify that?

  • hepekiz Mustafa Hepekiz (@hepekiz) reported

    @Namecheap Worst service ever. I'm feeling better now

  • _bgates Brendan 🍕🗳️😷☎️ (@_bgates) reported

    @shep @Cloudflare The only Namecheap issue I had was self-inflicted... used their app for 2FA and forgot about, had to beg their support to let me back in after switching phones. Now I use TOTP and it's all good.

  • paranoiapusher Sune Gabelgård (@paranoiapusher) reported

    Come on @bluehostsupport are you going to covers the losses for the victims? 10 more victims since I reported it to you, speed it up and take it down the NameCheap way .....

  • dnprotect dnprotect (@dnprotect) reported

    @candieanderson @Namecheap Typically it would be the web host that would be responsible for taking down the stolen content. Domain name registrars usually allow any available domain to be registered, even TM domains. Registrars should not allow certain domains to be registered, but they do.

  • apedotc ape.c (@apedotc) reported

    @AndrewM36013517 @ummjackson @Namecheap See, that's exactly the problem. You should know them as well if you take a stand against it. You have not dealt with it, but immediately draw conclusions from previously failed attempts and resulting prejudices. My time is too valuable to waste on cognitively impaired people.

  • Lauren_Failla Lauren_Failla (@Lauren_Failla) reported

    @Namecheap I have been trying to get someone on the phone or email or live chat and I cannot get an answer. I’ve submitted a support ticket with no response. We are having a major issue and I need someone immediately! I hope this will get someone to respond !

  • mhgtld Hanif.xyz (@mhgtld) reported

    @mashaheedbd @domain_research Namecheap does support Sedo MLS. I have sold domains on SEDO through Namecheap path.

    @Namecheap nuke it please. hxxps://suponsoo22-ba6aa2[.]ingress-florina[.]ewp[.]live/accesooo/acceso/es/clients/login[.]php

    @Namecheap hxxps://caibankx-b8dae5[.]ingress-erytho[.]ewp[.]live/es/clients/login.php another one to nuke!

  • JoshDance Josh Dance (@JoshDance) reported

    @Namecheap you down? Getting a 500 error.

  • osiris3366 OSIRIS (@osiris3366) reported

    @Namecheap NAMECHEAP admitted to me they violated their own terms of service, but allowed me as an exception to keep my business. Im sure ICANN will be interested in the emails sent.

  • candieanderson Candie Anderson (@candieanderson) reported

    @dnprotect @Namecheap Thanks, Bill, I appreciate your help. When I clicked on owner details on Who Is, it redirected me to GoDaddy's Who Is Page. The name servers are Cloudflare, so I reported abuse there & they said it's not hosted on Cloudflare. Apparently, they're in Vietnam. I can't find any info.

  • lancejpollard Lance Pollard (@lancejpollard) reported

    @Namecheap Just FYI it's kind of alarming to be locked out of 2-factor authentication, I contacted support 2 minutes in, and have been back and forth chat for the past 20 minutes, still with no code.

  • AndrewM36013517 DyerMaker (@AndrewM36013517) reported

    @apedotc @ummjackson @Namecheap Lol, I can't help but notice you didn't point out the mistakes that are being corrected by Handshake. Curious...

  • rikrdoMat Ricardo (@rikrdoMat) reported

    @Namecheap I always use the Online chat, but I have been trying to connect for several hours and it gives me a connection error. I will explain my problem by DM.

  • buydomainsdotgg 🗼 BuyDomains.gg💡💡 (@buydomainsdotgg) reported

    @Namecheap I dont think this is an issue, the names have been listed @Sedo for quite a long time. I have posted this screen shot in my domainers whatsapp group too will request others to do a check. Will try your precious suggestion too... Thanks... Will come back tomorrow with more info

  • apedotc ape.c (@apedotc) reported

    @AndrewM36013517 @ummjackson @Namecheap The DNS records can only be adjusted by those with the private keys and not by a support employee of a registrar. There are several other security precautions such as MultiSig, so that, for example, 3 out of 5 managers of a company must sign.

    @Namecheap another nuke please: hxxps://kioghiuygtiu-b8dae5[.]ingress-comporellon[.]ewp[.]live/es/clients/login[.]php?verification#_

  • get_so_relevant relevant.so (@get_so_relevant) reported

    After you have registered the domain via @Namecheap and pointed it to @Cloudflare - it is time to register an email address with your new domain. Which email service to choose? 🧐👇

  • apedotc ape.c (@apedotc) reported

    @dotsats @DoctorBrandx I only know of a list of SLDs without user data such as e-mails that would help Namecheap identify the owners.

  • apedotc ape.c (@apedotc) reported

    @AndrewM36013517 @ummjackson @Namecheap Indeed, no additional security is gained when reputable CEO and CTOs responsible for running billion dollar companies hold the keys to the domains, compared to when a random support employee in a low-wage country is bribed, manipulated or hacked to gain access to the DNS records.
