Hello,
Today i'm reporting ''HostUS'' which scammed me for only $12!
They will terminate your vps for ''outbounding attacks'' or ''abuse'' randomly.
I told them that i will dispute it and they banned me from their client area too.

    This is a very incorrect post.

    1. Your VPS Was suspended in February after sending an outbound DDOS (500Mbit/s) We then unsuspended you.
    2. A few days ago, we were contacted by law enforcement after you sent another DDOS and we received the report as well. So we suspended your VPS.
    3. You are not banned from our client area.

    Your VPS Was never terminated, only suspended. We offered you a full backup multiple times, and each time you refused.

    You then threatened us for a bad review on LET/WHT.

    We don't like abusers, and over the course of two months, you sent 2 DDOS Attacks.

    Why...

    If the client abused his services on the occasion of two times, he deserves to be suspended.

    Indeed, he should be banned from here.
    Also what are you talking about??

    the credit industry share details with each other on crooked people. seems with DOS being such a problem that the internet could do with a similar system.

    I'm actually talking about you. Sending out 500 Mbit DDoS attacks and you expect to get your money back?

    That would be smart, but where would we do it? It's not like there is a central source to put stuff like that (unfortunately).

    That's the actual scam trick..
    I asked them for proof.
    Proof of the 1st attack and the 2nd attack.
    you don't have it bro? It's because you lie your donky kong balls off.

    We sent you all graphs the first time, and the graphs were available to you both times.

    You have been reported to fraud report, and I can actually see other hosts have reported you.

    If you feel so strongly that your outbound DDoS attack that you committed is acceptable, why don't you sue them for the $12?

    Even if you didn't do it, you're responsible for the activities of your VPS.

    At least in the USA.

    If the said "attack" is being used for network related stress testing purposes it kinda voids that. In that being said, there's realistically no way you can prove who initiated the DoS attack: IP logs don't really hold up in court, and nor does a PayPal payment.

    Tell that to the other vps being in the same node... Network clogging to say something at least

    We received an abuse report from the company receiving the attack. It's "his" vps, therefore it's "his" responsibility to keep it secure.

  • Anyone would scam you for that amount! I mean who wouldn't want to spoil his brand name in return of the hefty $12.00?

    Do you know how many Audi's can you afford with those?

    Or just imagine, you can buy "ONE GALLON OF GAS!" (Futurama quote)

    LOL @ network related stress test. Absolute BS reasoning. You're telling me you have approval from all parties involved to saturate their (every) network?
