NATS hacker?

[T Pat]

I can only change three or four passwords before I feel like breaking something and go on to something else, at this rate it will be New Years by the time I'm done.
Fucking NATS is right

I did two this morning, so I've had my fill. I wish they could globally change everyones' password instead of having us login and do it ourselves. I'll never see a cent from most of those programs, so I'm not overly concerned if some devious fucker logs in and changes my payout info. |shocking|

i think i just drop all nats sponsors, i dont like to change things and with all the info i have readed about nats now and before i think its no good to use them.

I just got e-mail from massivedollars.com -the same thing !

It sure would be nice if someone from NATS would address this issue on this board.
I refuse to wade through all the shit at GFY to see if they have addressed it there

At this point the damage is done, there's not much TMM can do for individual affiliates of sponsors using their NATS software. They've contacted each of those sponsors with instructions on how to lock down their NATS admin, and they've deleted their own list of admin passes that was hacked (they'll now need a temp account created by each sponsor any time they need access to update/maintain the software).

It's up to each sponsor to in turn contact their affiliates with proper instructions. Some sponsors already had taken precautions that prevented unauthorized access to their NATS admin. Some that had not, don't show any evidence in their logs that there was any unauthorized access, and others do indeed know their admins were accessed and at the very least email addresses were taken.

I've still not heard from over half of the NATS sponsors I'm signed up with. Those that I haven't heard from by Friday morning will be getting an email from me asking why.

I understand it's holiday break, but JaymanCash is the ONLY NATS sponsor I deal with that I've heard from about this so far, out of around 15.

I can tell you that for MassiveDollars I've had 30% of the emails bounce back - because of these three possible reasons: email invalid, mailbox full, spamblocker blocked it.

**check if your email is updated - whitelist all your sponsors to be safe**

An excellent idea, always. In my case, however, all my sponsors are whitelisted and I'm actually getting things like regular FHG update mail, etc. from the same NATS sponsors that aren't mentioning the hack - so I don't think that's the problem here.

Hi Patrick,

There has been some recent concerns with some Nats security issues. We assure you we have always kept your infomation safe. We went through various webmaster accounts and made sure they weren't being accessed by any weird ip addresses and did not find anything. We took all recommended steps to close this exploit and prevent any data from being compromised as soon as this issue was found out. We are also taking extra steps now to make sure your information is secure. Also when we process payments we make sure the info has not changed and if it has we contact you.

To be on the safe side we recommend that you log into your IntenseCash account and verify that all your data is correct and we suggest you change your password immediately. Please use a strong, random alphanumeric password that is unique. Many webmasters use the same password for all their sponsors. We advise you to never do this you should make each password unique to each program. If you want to keep it simple You can maybe use initials of the program like IntenseCash would be ic and throw them in your password somewhere. You could do this for each program and make it a bit easier to keep track of passwords.

Be assured this issue is on the top of our priority list and we have been following everything very closely. Please visit our message board Gay Main Street if you want to follow this issue more closely. You can also contact us with any concerns or questions you may have. Thanks for your cooperation in this matter.

Thanks,
IntenseCash Crew

I've read alot about how a hacker could have access to logins/passwords and banking info but does anyone know if they had access to affiliate addresses and SS#'s? I haven't seen anything about that anywhere and that's what scares me the most.

They had master admin access. ALL of your account information was available to them. If that included your address and SS# then yes they had access to it.

Yes, but I never saw a sponsor asking for your bank info there. Basically, I wouldn't give a sponsor any info that I deem to be too sensitive because, well, you never know, anything can be hacked these days.
