💤 Inactive SecureServer.TV / Killstream.TV - ALL PAYPIGS DOXED BY RALPH on October 15th, 2021.

[break these cuffs]

This could be a honeypot for identifying people who are marks, and charging then for the pleasure. Whoever said Pajeets were incompetent?

The face of these scam orgs that most people see are the absolute lowest levels. I'm far more familiar with older West African scams, but I would very surprised if Indian ones didn't operate in similar manners. They're criminal organizations. Lists of names, phone numbers, etc were sold between groups. Lower level supervisors would exchange the names of whales who they thought they had milked dry to gain a favor with each other. Sure you got barely literate emails that nobody should fall for, the point is to only attract people dumb or ignorant to go along with the scam, what you likely never saw were the higher level criminals.

As you move up you would find scammers who would travel to foreign countries to do money wash or other business scams and romance vulnerable widows/widowers to bring in hundreds of thousands in a single longer con. These men and women could spend ten thousand or more in these pursuits. You also had people being given seed money to go start credit card stealing and fraud rings in foreign countries with high immigrant population of their people. These scam groups collectively created a multi-billion dollar a year criminal enterprise.

Something like secure server could easily have multiple end games. Get money from subscriptions as possible while spending as little as possible, sell subscriber information to other scammers, etc. Who knows what might happen with that credit card info when it eventually folds if they indeed have access to it. One of the two guys working at SS might even decide they're not getting enough of a cut and do their own side hustle. I would be very surprised if SS doesn't have some kind of link to organized crime in India.

So their "project manager" who "re-engineer test deploy end-user support" (what the fuck does that mean, does this person not know how to use commas or is that supposed to be a single sentence?) has only experience doing end-user support?
Wait, no sorry he was an "end-user support mentor", amazing.

Holy shit I swear this was just one of the four Indian cities I know of and I pretty much randomly picked it.

Having COOMER as your surname, Silicon Valley isn't sending their best.

I think this is the centre of India Tech scams, I remember the name and I think it's because of my binge watching of Jim Browning.

Edit: Holy Fuck it is.

It's bad enough their security is so bad it got breached three times - that we are aware of, which isn't surprising based on what I've seen of Tech Scammers network security - but to give your financial supporters details to some Kalkata based Indian Tech scammer is just awful, so irresponsible on every level. There's nothing to prevent these guys selling these details on to scammers who will phone them up aiming to rip them off.

Koomar works for a different website that's been in operation since 1998 and is still up. .net is registered through wildwestdomains via godaddy to obscure ownership information, .tv is registered through godaddy via domainsbyproxy to obscure ownership information

Yeah, apparently the way my original post was worded didn't make clear that Mr. Coomer works for Secure Server dot Net, not at dot TV. Edited my post to hopefully be more clear.

It seems clear that he not going back to secureserver because he uploading his content on Odysee since Monday.

Secureserver.net is partnered with GoDaddy to provide janky webmail boxes and other shitty services, IIRC. I was familiar with them being absolute shit but never looked into them enough to realize they are all pajeets holed up in Calcutta.

It's coming back today Ralphabros I swear, Zidan's been working on it while he's in China but his deployment over there is about to end. YOU NEVER KNOW WHAT'S GONNA HAPPEN ON THE KILLSTReAM LETS GOOOOOOOOOO

 

[Roland Juno-G]

Wow, I entirely forgot about this thread since August. Reading through where I left off (page 17), that trainwreck got worse... yet all of it was entirely unsurprising.

So, we're on day 3 of secureserver.tv no longer having a dns entry, more than enough time for everyone's dns server to get updated with current information, and this issue is affecting at least some non-killstream customers.

Has the crack Wal-Mart server support team thrown in the towel? Will Ethan Ralph be forced to address the refund question after collecting subscriptions for a service that continues to find ways to not exist even harder each week?

It's entirely possible they literally have nobody on staff who even understands dns.

I would be quite amused if this was all a copy/paste error with sstv trying to get killstream.tv delisted

 

[Insanely Retarded]

Ralph, it's time to be realistic, there is no universe in which this would be acceptable coming from a paid service like SS, and there is no legitimate company who would have let 3 breaches happen and when the third one wipes out one of their customers they do nothing for weeks.
I mean for fucks sake, bringing the site back up to at least help with appearances shouldn't have taken them long, even if they don't know what user accounts to restore, at least the front page could be something else other than what it is now to help restore some confidence. Just the fact that they haven't done that alone should tell you all you need to know about this company.

If you're not lying about how they keep telling you it's coming back (BIG if), then it's time to get real and look into possible alternatives, refunds, etc. The longer you wait the bigger the backlash will be.
Of course, it just might be that you know all of this already and you either don't want to or can't refund the paypigs who made the mistake of paying for 1 year (or that idiot who paid for 3) and you're just hoping you can lie long enough so that they forget about it.

I think they provide a template and then give the customer the keys to the vanity domains, which is why people like x22report have every html reference to secureserver.tv pointed at a different third party service. I suspect that the blame for the "under maintenance" page goes to Gator

I don't know that we had a third hack that brought down sstv because the machines that the rest of the web folders are on are still working and only their dns entry is simply gone globally. I think that sstv really fucked up some domain maintenance with godaddy/icann, they're trying some stupid "if the hackers can't find the main company site, we must be safe" strategy, or they've taken the money and run. My outside hope is that they really fucked up a request to delist killstream.tv, but we can't be that lucky with Ralph's recent series of Ws

You are completely right that this shit is absolutely unacceptable from a paid service. Even premium memberships to Russian file hosting sites are handled with more competence

It's great that they don't even use anything like Cloudflare as well. It's like someone naked begging you in a taunting and angry to fuck them while they hold their ass open, which is exactly what happened. At least three times.

How long are can you keep up the charade Ralph? People are gunna notice when their money doesn't come out anymore.

Ralph already dealt with that, he said he negotiated a free month for the inconvenience. Next month will also presumably be free. The one that he needs to worry about is the prepays asking "hey, what do I get? Where's my partial refund, fatty?"

You're also assuming that people who piss away money on killstream memberships for the privilege of paypigging in guntchat keep an eye on where their money goes in general

I see that question about the pre-pay-piggies a lot and frankly I do not understand it.
Obviously they just get a month added to their sub, right? Sounds pretty easy. Is there a reason y'all don't think that's the obvious solution?

You'd think so, but all the paying customers have to go on is "trust the plan".

I think they are referring to the "people" who paid for a year upfront. Think they paid $80 for the year, so theoretically would have saved $16 over the course of the year...

Except the service didn't even last that long.

Oh, I see; if the site never comes back he just HAS their money, that's true. He'll probably transfer membership over to whatever new subscriber model/platform. I know Oddy is gonna have a system for it, but I'm not sure if there will be paywall'd content.

Because the easy solution is to not bill as renewals come up as opposed to adding credits and extending expiry dates and we have not seen anything to indicate that sstv does anything the right way rather than the easy way

 

[glownig]

SSTV maybe trying to migrate away from Imavex to another provider or their own infrastructure - could even be rebranding since their current domain has gone down and their reputation is fucked.
Nov 5th was the latest release date he gave so we'll see.
