@michielhoefsmit @archer_rs Namecheap is the registrar that cybercriminals often use - because it's cheap and doesn't take down very fast. The personal details hiding service they now use is Withheld For Privacy (otherwise personal details are visible on WHOIS). No idea why this uses an Iceland domain.

I don't like Twitter call-outs but since your abuse department failed miserably in this case (and probably others) - this warrants public attention. @Namecheap If you need someone from the industry to train your abuse people on these scam operations, I will help!

@MilesDilworth Great piece, Miles. 👍 It's a big problem coming up repeatedly now on local Fb groups. I traced a number of domains in local texts back to @Namecheap & reported them to its 'abuse' email, but heard no more beyond auto-response. Hope they acted! #royalmailscam #RoyalMail

@Namecheap Allow users to turn OFF 2 factor auth. Period. It makes my job impossible to do (I admin MANY sites/domains for people). Even Network Solutions lets you turn that crap OFF.

@ketoverlock me too - someone bought a domain from Namecheap and fraudulently CLONED my website and they won't help take it down. The fake site even has my personal cell phone number on it

Can this be fixed? We remain optimistic! There's hosting companies larger than Namecheap out there. We don't see the same problems when reporting to those. Most are extremely responsive and proactive. Some have abuse APIs, allowing trusted companies to get expedited review.

@sjgayauthor I recommend SquareSpace if you can’t be bothered to do a bit of ***** work. Otherwise Namecheap has a really good website service. the service is super cheap, domains are cheap, and it’s easy to get SSL certificates. ZeroSSL is where you can get SSL for free

@CryptoGoutch @Namecheap We are having an internal system issue, causing dashboard slowness. Apologies for this and we'll update with an ETA for resolution shortly.

I stopped receiving emails on an email I got from namecheap. Did some research, found how to resolve it, but man, it was so techy. Thought of coming here to beg techy tweeps to help, but eventually chose to do it myself. And I did! I fixed the issue! Time to open my tech company.

@gennyble No payment required because it was Namecheap to Namecheap. Just an annoying manual intervention step involving contacting support required.
