Mike Codes (@Newaicoder) reported@melvynx **** porkbun! They had my info tied to a domain I didn’t own for decades and wouldn’t update them. Impossible to reach anyone with half a brain I’ve bought 100s of domains with namecheap never an issue

Sankalp Yadav (@sankalpyaddav) reportedI've already mailed you the payment proof and the whole WhatsApp conversation with date and time. RTs help this reach @Namecheap faster 🙏 #DomainScam #Namecheap #CryptoScam

Sebastian Hulme (@sebbhulme) reportedYou need more domains than you think and you need to buy them smarter than you probably are. Grab them from Porkbun or Namecheap. Spaceship is my favourite. Never from your email provider directly because the markup is criminal. Buy variations of your main domain with prefixes and suffixes. If your company is called Acme then you want getacme, acmehq, tryacme, acmegroup Dot com is ideal but dot co and dot info work fine too. Figure out how many emails you want to send per day Divide by 30 for Google inboxes Then divide by three And that tells you how many domains you need. Sending 3,000 a day means you need 100 inboxes across maybe 30 to 35 domains and that sounds like a lot until you realise domains cost about 10 quid each for a year. People try to run big volume off 3 domains and then wonder why their sender reputation is in the bin by week two.

DYJ (@davidyjeong) reportedan attacker tried to hijack one of our domains as well, here's what happened > i get an email from the domain registrar's abuse department telling me they've approved my request to change the email on my account to contact@<similar domain> > i don't own this other domain and i've never made such a request > within 30 seconds, i emailed back saying i did not make the request > i email namecheap, the registrar for the other domain and report abuse to block STMP/IMAP > i pull out my laptop in the middle of a shopping mall and literally sit on the floor to log in and add in every form of MFA i could > 10 minutes later, the account is locked > i get an email from the registrar effectively saying "ignore the previous email, we didn't change the email yet. we've locked your account, please give us KYC documents" > i go back and forth and provide all the KYC documents they ask for > i confirm that no changes can be made to the domain while it is locked > i create a ticket from the regitrar's contact form from their official website to verify the email thread is legitimate > the account is locked for a week while they verify my documents > we constantly monitor the domain (dig NS <domain> +short) just in case > i threaten to submit an ICANN complaint and tell my users to use a new domain if they don't unlock my account > account unlocked within minutes > currently moving everything to AWS Route 53 PSA - if you're not on AWS, move everything to AWS. if you log into a website with your wallet, make sure to carefully read the authorizations prompt

Nick (@maietta) reported@Namecheap I'm working on behalf of your client. You won't be able to help me directly. We're in a hurry right now.

Anmol Mishra (@anmol_biz) reportedyou’ll regret starting a new app with Supabase, so go with Firebase instead. Firebase Auth is making Clerk look like a bad choice. use Firebase Storage instead of S3 because it’s the cheapest storage you can get. Replace Namecheap for Spaceship. And please, just stop using MongoDB use Firebase Firestore
-
Truong Pham (@truongphamit) reported@pcshipp Depends on price and renewal fees, but Namecheap often has good beginner deals. If you want perks and uptime, GoDaddy isn’t the worst either.

Grok (@grok) reported@noob_contrarian Hey, for your SBI virtual Visa card: It works on GPay/Stripe but fails on PayPal/Namecheap likely due to SBI's restrictions on debit/virtual cards for those platforms (common RBI/PayPal mismatch on OTP/3D Secure). Quick fixes: - Double-check intl transactions enabled in YONO app. - Contact SBI support (1800-11-2211 or YONO chat) to whitelist PayPal/Namecheap. - For Namecheap: Try adding card again in incognito, or preload account balance via UPI/Stripe. - PayPal: Most SBI debits don't work—use a credit card or linked bank acct instead. If still stuck, reply with exact error msg.

Sport Fanatic (@SportFanatic365) reported@mittxldesigns I don’t think their domain is with Amazon. My friend who works in Zepto told they had brought the domain from Namecheap. For some reason they took down that domain. So they brought some other domain and has hosted

🔥Sven ☠ 2157🔥 (@Sven2157) reportedI have several website issues today, since I switched to @Namecheap from @GoDaddy & GLAD I DID! Took less than 5 min to assess the issue with NC. GD would have me on hold for 1-4 hours, AND STILL NOT FIX ANYTHING! Bob Parsons would be ashamed! Global CPanel/WHM outage.
