Month of being hacked continuously

I have spent the month of March being hacked again and again by bad guys in Indonesia, China, Venezuela and Russia. We were not able to tell if they had a sleeper file somewhere from years past that kept opening a door and letting these people in or just what. If you want specifics on how this was finally resolved, contact Thomas Raef with wewatchyourwebsite.com and ask for the details of what he did for us. He may be a little leary of telling you that much because he doesn't know if you are a hacker or Zen Developer! If you want another reference for him, call Bluehost.

I know you probably don't want to recommend other businesses like his, but for $40 per year, he cleans your website and monitors it for suspicious activity every 4 hours. He said the hacking we experienced was by far the worst he's ever seen, but he fixed the problem and hardened our website. He currently monitors close to 100,000 websites.

Just my two cents worth!

Re: Month of being hacked continuously

If Mr Raef has found specific information he is willing to share which may be of benefit to protecting other storeowners, have him forward the details to [email protected] and we will review it.
Having him forward the information to us will avoid any issues of him questioning our identity, etc.
