Hi steemians! I have a very bad new ClixSense got hacked yesterday. Thankfully as of now some users can already get on the site but some also are still unable to visit the website and I'm one of them.
Here is a message from Jim Grago the owner of Clixsense:
Hello Everyone, first let me apologize for the issues today. Over the last several weeks we have been the target of a hacker who I believe first created the bot csadviewer and then moved on to submitting ads that when a viewer opened an attachment that popped up they got infected and their PC was compromised. Today, this hacker changed our DNS to a wonderful gay porn site. They removed our websites and email and of course with itbeing Sunday its hard to get any support. My phone has been ringing off the hook and my email blowing up. Please do not call or write in. We're definitely aware of this problem.
PLEASE NOTE!!!!!The ClixSense servers were not hacked and all of our servers are still intact and your account information was not effected. As I said above, its a DNS hack. It may take a bit for the site to fully come back online due to propagation but it will be back as soon as possible.Again, I am sorry this happened and it's certainly not the way I planned to start my Sunday.Thanks
For me Clixsense now is the best PTC site on the web and this kind of events are very bad for us contributors who make money on this site. I hope this will not happen again in the future.
