Zarnia.com & ZarniaCash.com CLOSES

Got this in my inbox, don't know I was signed up to them.

Quote:
The worst has happened.

Our server took a major hit from a very persistant hacker. Not only did he delete all of the content and files that make up Zarnia.com, he nailed our webmaster database as well. Just wiped it clean. To make things worse, our backup scheme was flawed resulting in an unrecoverable situation. I sadly would like to inform you of the closing of Zarnia.com and Zarniacash.

Please remove all links to our tour and hosted galleries as soon as possible. At some point everything will go offline. We will NEVER redirect your hosted gallery links to anything else. That's not how we operate. Just a simple 404 error page is all your surfers will see. Later, we will try to monetize our type-in traffic by offering another option on the Zarnia.com homepage, however.

I apologize for this.

All accounts with our processors Paycom and CCBill will be terminated immediately.

Best of luck to all of you and thanks for the needed support many of you have already offered to me.

Marc

So the hacker managed to wipe clean their webmaster database but they still managed to e-mail webmasters?

Well, I know you should back things up yourself always but I have had 2 different dedicated hosts that had daily backups. Only problem is when you needed them they didn't have the backups and suddenly quit responding to support.

Thankfully the processors keep affiliate email addresses.

Zarnia has not been a priority of mine for over a year as I work on a very large project. It was a very small site with very few members. Made more sense to let it go than to try to rebuild it. Let's just say the "babe" niche has limited growth potential.

If they hosted with National Net, they would still be in business today.
